Baked Potatoes

Состав / Ингредиенты:

• Potatoes 1 Kilogram
• Lard (with layers) 350 Grams
• Salt, pepper To taste
• Green onion To taste
• Garlic 1-2 Cloves
• Vegetable oil 1 Tablespoon

	1. Prepare the ingredients. Thoroughly wash the potatoes and peel them; if using new potatoes, just scrub them well with a brush. Also, wash the lard, and you can use either fresh or salted lard, making sure to remove any excess salt.
	2. Cut the lard into small pieces, about 1 cm thick, as too thin slices may burn after an hour in the oven.
	3. Cut the potatoes in half, not quite through to the end; you can make a wedge-shaped cut to insert a piece of lard. Be sure to salt and pepper the potatoes inside and out, then brush them with vegetable oil for a tasty crust.
	4. Also, grease a fireproof baking tray with oil, place the potatoes with lard on it, cover tightly with foil, and place it in a preheated oven for 40 minutes at a temperature of 200-215 degrees.
	5. After that, remove the foil and return the potatoes to the oven for another 15-20 minutes, so they can brown.
	6. Sprinkle the finished baked potatoes with minced garlic and herbs, serve hot. Enjoy your meal!
