8 whole red or white potatoes washed
1 medium onion
1/4 lb. bacon
3 TB. vinegar
2 Tbs. flour
2 tsp. sugar
1 tsp salt
1 tsp chopped parsley
1 cup water
Cook potatoes in boiling water until tender, yet firm. Dice, but not too small, and place in mixing bowl. Dice and fry in frying pan 1/4 lb. bacon, till almost crisp. Do not let burn. Remove diced bacon and place into mixing bowl with other ingredients.Peel and dice onion and place into reserved bacon fat. Saute a few minutes. I like to cover the pan so the onions saute evenly. Remove sauteed diced onion with slotted spoon and place into mixing bowl.Into at least 2 Tbs. bacon fat, cook 2 Tbs. flour until smooth and bubbly, add 3 Tbs. vinegar and 2 teaspoon sugar, 1 tsp. salt, and enough water to make a medium sauce. (About 1 cup or more). Bring to a boil and cook until sauce is thickened.Pour over ingredients in mixing bowl, and toss and mix. Sprinkle with parsley. Taste and if needed add more salt.
