Instructions
- Lay the bacon pieces on a baking tray and freeze until hard, about 30 minutes. Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 175 degrees C. Bring a large pot of salted water to boil.
- Using a sharp knife, make crosswise cuts in each potato, about 1/8 inch apart, stopping about 1/4 inch from the bottom.
- Add the potatoes to the boiling water and cook 4 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and carefully transfer to a baking tray; let cool slightly. Pat the potatoes dry, then insert 3 pieces of the frozen bacon into the cuts of each potato, spacing the bacon evenly and letting it poke out of the top. Melt 5 tablespoons butter and brush generously over the potatoes and in the cuts. Reserve any excess butter for basting. Season the potatoes with salt and pepper.
- Transfer potatoes to the oven and bake until the outsides are browned and crisp, about 2 hours, basting halfway through with the melted butter.
- When the potatoes are almost done, melt the remaining 3 tablespoons butter and mix with the onions, parsley and garlic. Spoon over the potatoes and roast 5 more minutes. Transfer to a platter and season with salt and pepper.
