Description

Recipe very slightly adapted from Bobby Flay


Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 pounds small(new) red potatoes
  • 1 yellow onion, quartered
  • 1/2 pound bacon, diced
  • 1 large red onion, thinly sliced
  • 1/2 cup cider vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard (affiliate)
  • 1/4 cup olive oil (affiliate)
  • Salt and freshly ground pepper
  • 8 green onions, thinly sliced
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley leaves

Instructions

  1. To cook your potatoes in the pressure cooker, place them in the pot, cover in 1 1/2 cups water, add in quartered onion, and set to high pressure for 6-8 minutes, depending on the size.
  2. When time is up, do a quick pressure release then allow to cool for 5-10 minutes before handling.
  3. If you are making your potatoes on the stove, place in a large pot with onions, cover with water, then allow to simmer until you can pierce them through with a fork.
  4. While potatoes are cooking, fry bacon in large skillet until crispy, then remove to a paper towel to drain grease.
  5. To the bacon grease, add the thinly sliced red onion and saute for 3-4 minutes until soft.
  6. Whisk in the vinegar and mustard, and let simmer for another 2-3 minutes.
  7. Remove from heat and whisk in the olive oil and lots of salt and freshly ground pepper.
  8. When potatoes are just cool enough to handle, quarter them and toss with onion dressing.
  9. Sprinkle with cooked bacon, green onions, and parsley, then taste and season again with salt and pepper if needed.
  10. Serve warm.
