My family really likes Bratwurst. I decided to grill up some over the weekend, but I wasn't sure what to pair with it. I wanted something German to go with it, so when I saw this potato salad online, I knew it would be perfect. This potato salad was some of the best that I have ever tasted. I really liked the addition of the bacon and the mustard which made it salty and spicy. I honestly can't remember whose blog I got it from, but the recipe does state that it was adapted from East Meets West.
Ingredients:
1 kg potatoes ( I used 4-5 large poatoes)
Meat stock(of which 200 ml goes into the salad
200g bacon ( I diced up 1/2 package of center cut bacon)
1 onion
1 tbsp oil
3-4 tbsp white wine vinegar
2-3 tbsp mayonnaise
1-2 tsp Dijon mustard
salt and pepper to taste
green onions for garnish
Directions:
Peel and dice the potatoes and boil them in the beef stock. Set aside 200 ml for the salad.
In a large skillet or wok, fry the bacon until browned. Remove and drain on a paper towel.
Drain bacon grease from skillet and add the onions. Saute them until they are tender. Add in the cooked potatoes and reserved meat stock. Simmer a little and then pour in the oil, mustard, vinegar and mayo mixture, add salt an pepper and stir well. Turn off the heat , add in the remaining onions, bacon and green onions and mix to incorporate.
