Potato Salad

I'm a bit of a food snob, and one of the things I can't handle is mayonnaisey salads, specially when they are not fresh! So I don't like mayonnaisey potato salad either, and today I'm sharing my potato salad with you.



What you need:
150g Streaky Bacon {cut into pieces}
about 500g Baby Potatoes
a medium Onion {sliced}
half a cup of Spring onions {chopped}

Dressing:
3 tablespoon Wholegrain mustard
1/4 cup Olive oil
1/4 cup Balsamic Vinegar
2 tablespoons Lemon juice
2 tablespoon Honey

Boil the potatoes until soft {if you like, you can serve them cut in half in the salad then they absorb the dressing nicely}.
On a medium heat fry the onions in a frying pan until golden brown, then add to the potatoes.
Cut the bacon in to pieces and fry until brown and crispy, drain on a piece of towelling for a few minutes, then add to the potatoes.

Mix the dressing ingredients well, pour over the potatoes and mix in.

Cover and leave to stand until ready to serve.  Then chop some spring onions over the salad and mix through before serving.


I love this with a braai {barbeque} in the summer.
