Method
- Simmer the potatoes in a pan of salted water until tender, about 10-15 minutes. Drain and put back in the pan to dry out. Halve the potatoes, or quarter, if larger.
- While the potatoes are cooking, fry the bacon until very crisp. Remove from the pan and discard all the fat except 1 tablespoon. Heat the remaining fat and add the celery and onion. Season and sauté for 2-3 minutes. Add the vinegar, water, sugar and mustard. Simmer for about 5 minutes, or until syrupy.
- Pour over the warm potatoes and gently toss. Add the parsley and toss again. Taste for additional seasoning and serve warm with the sausages.
