De bereidingswijze

Stap voor stap

  1. 1

    Preheat your grill to medium heat (around 180°C / 350°F), or preheat your oven to the same temperature.

    Ongeveer 5 min

    Tip van de kok: If using an oven, place a baking sheet inside as it preheats.

  2. 2

    Cut four large sheets of heavy-duty aluminum foil, each about 30cm square.

    Ongeveer 1 min

  3. 3

    In a medium saucepan, bring the water and the main portion of butter to a boil.

    Ongeveer 3 min

  4. 4

    Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the milk.

    Tip van de kok: Adding cold milk off the heat prevents the potatoes from becoming gummy.

  5. 5

    Gradually whisk in the instant potato flakes until smooth, then let the mixture stand for one minute to thicken.

    Ongeveer 1 min

  6. 6

    In a large bowl, combine the prepared potatoes with the grated cheddar cheese, chopped onion, crumbled bacon, green bell pepper, salt, and black pepper.

    Ongeveer 2 min

  7. 7

    Divide the potato mixture evenly among the four foil sheets, placing it in the center of each.

    Ongeveer 2 min

  8. 8

    Fold the sides of the foil up and seal the edges to create enclosed packets.

    Ongeveer 1 min

    Tip van de kok: Leave a little space inside the packet for steam to circulate and melt the cheese.

  9. 9

    Place the foil packets directly on the grill grates or on a baking sheet in the preheated oven.

  10. 10

    Cook for 20 minutes, or until heated through and the cheese is fully melted.

    Ongeveer 20 min

  11. 11

    Carefully open the packets, as hot steam will be released.

  12. 12

    Serve immediately, topped with an optional pat of butter if desired.
