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.
