Steps:
- Heat the bacon lardons in a 10-inch/25-cm frying pan over medium heat until the fat runs, 2 to 3 minutes. Do not let them brown. Remove them with a draining spoon and set aside. Melt the lard in the pan, add the potatoes, and sprinkle them with pepper. The bacon may contribute enough salt. Reduce the heat to low, cover, and cook for 5 minutes. Stir in the lardons and continue to cook, uncovered, over low heat, tossing or stirring often, until the potatoes are tender and some are browned, 20 to 25 minutes. Don't worry if some of them are crushed, as they will help hold the mixture in a cake.
- Stir in the cheese, taste, and adjust the seasoning. Press down on the potatoes to level them in the pan. Turn the heat to high and let them cook without stirring until the bottom is browned, 3 to 5 minutes. Press on the cake occasionally to hold it together. When done, it should be brown around the edges and starting to pull from the sides of the pan. Take the pan off the heat, run a knife around the edge to loosen the cake, and turn it out onto a warmed platter. Serve hot.
BACON POTATO BAKE
This cheesy potato casserole is always popular. It's a nice change from mashed potatoes and with a bread crumb and crumbled bacon topping, it looks as good as it tastes. -Helen Haro, Yucaipa, California

Steps:
- Put bacon in large nonstick skillet over medium heat; while fat is rendering, peel and grate potatoes (shredding disk of a food processor works great).
- When bacon is about halfway crisp, spread it evenly in pan, and put potatoes over it; sprinkle with salt and pepper. Press the potatoes down with a plate almost as big as pan, and leave plate in place for about 5 minutes. Remove plate, and continue to cook, undisturbed, so potatoes form a cake, and adjusting heat so potatoes brown without burning. When potatoes are brown, slide cake out onto a plate, invert it onto another plate, and slide it back in, cooked side up.
- Turn on broiler while potatoes brown on the bottom, about 5 minutes. Sprinkle cheese on potatoes and carefully break eggs into the cheese (if you like softer eggs, put eggs on first, followed by cheese). Broil until cheese melts and eggs are set, about 5 minutes. Serve hot.

Tips:
- Choose the right potatoes: Yukon Gold or Russet potatoes are best for this recipe, as they are starchy and will hold their shape well when cooked.
- Shred the potatoes finely: This will help them cook evenly and quickly.
- Season the potatoes well: Don't be afraid to add plenty of salt and pepper to the potatoes before cooking. This will help them taste their best.
- Cook the potatoes in a hot skillet: This will help them get golden brown and crispy on the outside.
- Don't overcrowd the skillet: If you overcrowd the skillet, the potatoes will steam instead of fry and will not get crispy.
- Flip the potatoes frequently: This will help them cook evenly.
- Add the cheese and bacon at the end: This will prevent them from getting overcooked.
- Serve the potato cake hot: This is when it is at its best.
Conclusion:
This potato cake with cheese and bacon is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. It is sure to be a hit with your family and friends. So next time you are looking for a new recipe to try, give this one a try. You won't be disappointed!
