Instructions

  1. 1Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Rub the potatoes with lard. Bake for approximately 45-60 minutes, or until the potatoes are soft when pierced with a fork.
  2. 2Once the potatoes are baked, carefully cut off a slice from the top of each potato and scoop out the center, leaving a shell. In a bowl, combine the butter, parsley, pimiento, cucumber, chile powder, hot milk, and whipped egg. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Beat the mixture until light and fluffy.
  3. 3Fill each potato shell with the prepared mixture. Place two strips of bacon on top of each filled potato. Return the stuffed potatoes to the oven and bake for 10-15 minutes, or until the bacon is crisp and the filling is heated through.
  4. 4Remove the potatoes from the oven and garnish with a stripe of pimiento and a sprinkle of parsley before serving.
