Description

I can’t get enough of my grandmother’s warm German potato salad. It’s tangy, sweet, fresh and earthy all at the same time.

Ingredients

  • 4 whole Medium Potatoes Or Equivalent
  • 2 Tablespoons Butter
  • ¼ cups Chopped Onion
  • 1 Tablespoon Flour
  • 1 Tablespoon Sugar
  • ⅓ cups White Wine Vinegar
  • ¼ cups Water
  • 1 Tablespoon Fresh Chopped Parsley
  • Salt And Pepper, to taste

Preparation

Cook potatoes in jackets (g’ma’s words!) and cut into bite-sized/potato-salad-sized pieces.

Heat butter in a frying pan, add onion and cook until soft but not brown. Mix in flour, sugar, salt and pepper. Then add water and vinegar. Cook, stirring until thick.

Pour sauce over potatoes and serve warm. (The original recipe calls for crumbled bacon over the top, but I substitute fresh parsley. It’s your choice!)

I’m eating this right now. I’m chewing as I type! It is very good. I was looking for a recipe to approximate my favorite restaurant version and this is darn close. The only thing I did differently was I went ahead and made some bacon and then subbed the bacon grease for the butter. I will make this again!
