Special Diets:
Ingredients
- 2 pounds Yukon Gold or yellow potatoes, unpeeled
- 1/2 pound bacon
- 1 large white onion, chopped
- 2 tablespoons canola oil
- 3 tablespoons whole-grain mustard
- 6 tablespoons cider vinegar
- 1 bunch green onions, chopped
- 1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt
- 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
Method
Place potatoes in a large pot of water and bring to a boil.
Cook until just tender, about 15 to 20 minutes.
Drain and cool slightly, then peel if desired and slice into thick rounds.
Meanwhile, cook bacon in a large skillet over medium heat until crisp; transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to let drain.
When cool enough to handle, crumble into small pieces.
Drain off all but 1 tablespoon fat from the skillet, then return to medium heat.
Add white onion and cook until lightly browned, 7 to 8 minutes.
In a large bowl, gently toss together warm bacon, potatoes and white onion with oil, mustard, vinegar, green onions, salt and pepper.
Garnish with parsley and serve warm or at room temperature.
