Ingredients
- 200 g Potatoes, waxy
- 150 g Green beans
- 5 g Butter
- 60 g Smoked bacon lardons
- 50 g Onion
- 15 g Red wine vinegar
- 0.2 g Black pepper
- 3 g Parsley, fresh
Method
- Boil the potatoes in their skins for 20-25 minutes, until just tender. Peel them while warm and cut them into thick slices.
- Meanwhile, top the green beans and cook them in boiling water for 8-10 minutes, until tender but still bright green. Drain.
- Melt the butter in a large frying pan and fry the lardons over medium heat for 6-8 minutes, until golden and their fat has run.
- Add the chopped onion and fry for 4-5 minutes, until soft and golden.
- Pour in the vinegar, standing back as it spits, and let it bubble for 30 seconds, scraping up the browned bits from the pan.
- Add the warm potatoes and beans to the pan, grind over plenty of pepper and toss gently over low heat for 1-2 minutes, until coated and hot through.
- Scatter with the chopped parsley and serve warm, while the potatoes still soak up the dressing.
