Warm potato and bacon salad
Background
On cold days I crave something warm and filling for lunch. This warm potato and bacon salad is a regular choice when I have leftover boiled potatoes from the night before. Sometimes I make the dish with chorizo instead of lardons. I serve it with a crispy green salad and lunch is sorted!
Ingredients
- 250g baby/new potatoes
- 75 pancetta or bacon lardons
- 1 small red onion
- 1 clove of garlic, chopped
- 1 tsp chopped thyme leaves or rosemary leaves
- 2 handful of spinach
- ½ cup sliced pitted black olives
Instructions
- Cook the potatoes in lightly salted water until tender, then drain. Let them cool. This can be done well in advance.
- Thinly slice the onion. Heat a non-stick pan, add the pancetta, onion, chopped garlic & herbs. Fry for 5-10 minutes until the bacon is crispy and the onion is soft.
- Meanwhile halve the potatoes.
- Add the potatoes to the pan, stir for a couple of minutes until warmed through. Add the spinach and olives then put a lid on, turn off the heat and let it steam.
- When the spinach has wilted, stir through and serve.
