How to make the stuffed sweet potatoes?

Preheat the oven to 180 °C. Wash the sweet potatoes, prick them here and there with a fork and wrap them in aluminum foil. Place the potatoes on the oven rack and leave them for about 50 minutes. Turn them occasionally and prick them to check if they're done.
Meanwhile, fry the bacon in a frying pan until crisp, slice the spring onions into rings and grate the cheese.
When the potatoes are cooked, cut them in half, sprinkle the halves with cheese and put them back in the oven for another 5 minutes so the cheese melts nicely.
Finally spread some crème fraîche on top, and finish with the fried bacon and spring onion. Enjoy!
