Stuffed potatoes with sour cream
Potatoes are delicious cooked in aluminum foil over a wood fire. And so easy to prepare! This campfire recipe goes further than traditional buttered potatoes: the potatoes are stuffed with pieces of spicy capicolli (pork) that has been fermented for 120 days.
INGREDIENTS

- 375 mL (1 1/2 cups) shredded white cheddar cheese
PREPARATION
Wrap each potato in aluminum foil. Cook on the grill for 30 minutes. Then, cut the sausage slices and chives into very small pieces. Soften the butter and cheese in a frying pan and add the sausage pieces. Remove from heat. Place the potatoes horizontally and cut off the tops. Remove the flesh, leaving a 1-cm edge. Mix the flesh of the hollowed-out potatoes with the sausage pieces in the frying pan. Add salt and pepper. Stuff the potatoes and put them back on the grill for a few minutes until the cheese is melted. Serve with sour cream!
