RATING

Sweet potatoes are in no way inferior to their yellow cousins. They also make excellent hasselback potatoes. Thickly filled with bacon and cheese, they are delicious to eat.

Directions

1
Preheat oven (electric cooker: 180 °C/circulating air: 160 °C/gas: see manufacturer). Line a baking tray with baking paper. Wash sweet potatoes thoroughly. Cut deep into the potatoes crosswise at intervals of approx. 3 mm close together, but do not cut through them. Cut bacon into 2-3 cm wide strips and stick them into some of the incisions. Place the sweet potatoes on the tray. Spread with barbecue sauce, season with salt and pepper. Bake in a hot oven for about 45 minutes.

Meanwhile peel the onion and garlic. Chop onion finely, chop garlic finely. Clean, wash and drain the spinach.
3
Grate cheese finely and mix with Panko. Sprinkle cheese crumbs over the potatoes 15-20 minutes before the end of the baking time.
