Tip: When buying potatoes, check how they are labelled. ‘Boiling”, “waxy’ or ‘salad’ potatoes are good for salads as they hold their shape when boiled. ‘Starchy’, ‘floury’, ‘baking’ or ‘mashing’ potatoes are best for roasting or mashing. ‘All-purpose’ potatoes are good all-rounders.
Variation: Substitute spicy chorizo sausage for the bacon, or toss through some chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley, thinly sliced celery, cooked green peas, or a diced green pear with skin on.
