6 Meisterwurst Streaky Bacon Rashers—Fried Crisp & Crumbled
2 kg Baby Potatoes—Boiled & Halved
6 Hard Boiled Eggs—Halved
½ cup Finely Sliced Scallions—Green Onions
1 Sprig of Fresh Parsley or Mint
1 cup Celery—Sliced Fine
¼ cup Yellow Mustard
1 cup Mayonnaise
½ cup Greek Yoghurt—for Texture & Tanginess
⅓ cup Milk
1
Bring all the ingredients together.
2
Put on to boil (high heat) a large pot of salted water
3
Add the potatoes to the boiling water—boil for about 20-30 mins—after 20 mins test the potatoes by pricking with a fork—if the fork slides in-and-out effortlessly, you potatoes are ready
4
Drain and let the potatoes cool, but just till warm enough so as to absorb the flavours of the dressing
5
In a skillet/fry pan, crispy fry the streaky bacon rashers until they just crumble in your fingers when cool
6
While the potatoes cool for a bit, start to prepare the Devilled Eggs, first peel the egg shells off—remove the hardboiled egg yolks & put into a mixing bowl—mash the yolks to a smooth consistency with a fork
7
Into the yolk mash, gradually start to drizzle about ⅓ cup of mayonnaise, constantly mixing slowly until smooth & lump-free
8
Now beat in the balance ingredients of mayonnaise, milk & mustard
9
At this point, get back to the potatoes while still warm enough—peel & dice into small cubes
10
Now, the potatoes are ready for the dressing mixture to be added in gently, so as to absorb all the flavours—sweet, tangy & creamy
11
Chop up the egg whites & along with the sliced celery & scallions, & the crumbed Streaky Bacon add to the remainder salad & give a good mix through
12
Garnish with some set-aside scallions & Bacon crumbs & a sprig of Fresh Parsley or Mint
13
Best when chilled—cover & chill in fridge for a couple of hours before serving
14
There you have it! Oodles of flavour! There’s no such thing as too much Bacon!!
Tips
15
* Substitute Greek Yoghurt with Fat Free Yoghurt
* You can add some Granulated Sugar for that slight edge on Sweetness & Tang, elevating the flavour
* When boiling the Potatoes, keep in mind they may vary in size, so check on them periodically while cooking. Remove the smaller ones early on
* Don’t allow the boiled potatoes to cool much— keeping them warm allows the dressings’ flavours to permeate
