HIMMEL UND ERDE (HEAVEN AND EARTH)

Himmel Und Erde (Heaven and Earth) image

Posted for World Tour 2006, this is a traditional German accompaniment to sausages or pork dishes. The flavors meld quite a bit better than one unaccustomed to it would guess. Try it--I think you'll be pleasantly surprised.

I made this sidedish for a German club Thanksgiving party and everyone loved it! To make it really easy, use precooked bacon. You can also cook 3-4 cubed Granny Smith apples with the potatoes for a slightly tart taste. Serve it warm.
