Instructions
Preparation of The Dish | |
|---|---|
| 1. | Start by cooking unpeeled potatoes in boiling water in a saucepan until tender, for approximately 40 minutes. |
| 2. | Meanwhile, fry the bacon in a skillet until crispy, which should take about 10 minutes. Once done, remove the bacon, drain it on paper towels, crumble it, and set it aside. |
| 3. | In the same skillet, cook the chopped onion in the bacon drippings until partially tender, approximately 5 minutes. |
| 4. | Next, blend together the sugar, flour, salt, pepper, water, and vinegar. Add this mixture to the onions. |
| 5. | Cook the mixture while stirring constantly until it thickens and bubbles, around 5 minutes. Once thickened, remove it from the heat. |
| 6. | Peel and slice the cooked potatoes. Add the potatoes to the onion mixture and heat well for about 5 minutes. |
| 7. | Finally, add the sliced red radishes, toss everything together, and serve hot, topped with the reserved crumbled bacon. |
