Baked Potatoes with Cheese

First, peel the potatoes and slice them into thinner pieces. Place the prepared potatoes into a large pot, pour in the milk and cream, and season with salt. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low to medium and cook for 3–4 minutes. The potatoes should be soft but not falling apart. Remove the cooked potatoes from the heat, press the garlic into them, and leave them in the pot.

Now, prepare a baking dish (20 cm × 30 cm) and preheat the oven to 180 °C.

Cut the bacon into small cubes, place it in a pan, and slowly render it over medium heat. Then add the cooked bacon to the pot with the potatoes.
