Pellkartoffeln mit Speck, Schmand und Käse überbacken – einfaches Rezept ideal als Beilage zu Backhendl oder Grillgut. Schnelle und Einfache Rezepte.
Ingredients
Scale
- 12 medium-sized waxy potatoes
- 200 g smoked bacon (or cooked ham)
- 2 cups sour cream (Schmand or sour cream)
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 spring onion
- Salt
- Pepper
- Sweet paprika powder
- Nutmeg
- 200 g grated Emmental cheese
Instructions
- Begin by thoroughly washing the potatoes under running water to remove any dirt. Place the potatoes, unpeeled, in a large pot and fill with enough water to cover them completely. Bring the water to a boil over high heat, then reduce the heat and simmer the potatoes until they are almost cooked through but still slightly firm. This will take about 15 to 20 minutes, depending on the size of the potatoes. Test doneness by inserting a knife; it should go in with slight resistance.
- Once the potatoes are cooked, drain the hot water and let them cool just enough to handle. Carefully peel the potatoes while they are still warm, using a small knife or your fingers. After peeling, slice each potato in half lengthwise, creating two oval halves from each potato.
- Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) top and bottom heat. Arrange the potato halves, cut side up, in a single layer in a large ovenproof baking dish or a deep baking tray. Make sure the potatoes fit snugly together but are not stacked on top of each other.
- Dice the smoked bacon (or cooked ham) into small cubes. Evenly sprinkle the bacon pieces over the cut sides of each potato half, ensuring each piece gets some of the savory meat for flavor.
- Finely chop the spring onion and place it in a medium mixing bowl. Add the sour cream (Schmand), heavy cream, a pinch of salt, freshly ground pepper, sweet paprika powder, and a small pinch of freshly grated nutmeg. Mix everything together thoroughly until you have a creamy, well-blended topping.
- Using a spoon, place a generous dollop of the creamy mixture onto each potato half, spreading it slightly so that it covers the surface of the potato. Make sure each piece is well topped.
- Sprinkle the grated Emmental cheese evenly over the prepared potato halves, making sure each one is covered with a good layer of cheese for a deliciously melted finish.
- Transfer the baking dish with the prepared potatoes to the preheated oven. Bake at 180°C (350°F) for about 20 minutes, or until the cheese has melted and is golden brown, and the topping is bubbling.
- Remove the baking dish from the oven and allow the potatoes to cool for a couple of minutes before serving. Serve the belegte Ofenkartoffeln hot as a main dish or as a hearty side to your favorite grilled meats or fried chicken.
Notes
For an extra touch of flavor, you can add freshly chopped herbs such as chives or parsley as a garnish after baking. If you prefer a lighter version, replace some of the sour cream and heavy cream with Greek yogurt or crème fraîche. These baked potatoes are perfect for preparing ahead and can be reheated in the oven. Adjust the seasoning to taste, especially the paprika and nutmeg, to suit your preference.
