Emeril's Red Bliss Potato Salad with Crispy Bacon
Not Your Traditional Potato Salad
Every family has their own potato salad recipes, usually filled with mayonnaise and standard potatoes. Here's one that fulfill your need for flavor without hurting your waistline.
Ingredients
Cooking Directions
Place the potatoes in a saucepan and add water to cover them by 1 inch. Season with salt and bring to a boil. Cook until the potatoes are fork-tender, 15 to 20 minutes.
Meanwhile, heat 2 tablespoons of the oil in a small saute pan. Add onion, red pepper, and garlic and cook for 3 minutes, until vegetables are softened.
When potatoes are just tender, drain, cool briefly, then transfer to a serving bowl. (Halve or quarter if potatoes are large.) Add the softened veggies, remaining olive oil, 3 tablespoons of the vinegar, crispy bacon , and parsley and toss to coat. Season to taste with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Add up to 1 tablespoon more vinegar, to taste.
Serve warm or at room temperature.
