Time 1h

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

7 medium potatoes (about 1-3/4 pounds)
8 slices bacon
1 small onion, chopped
1/2 cup diced celery
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
3 tablespoons sugar
1/4-1/2 teaspoon salt
pepper
3/4 cup water
1/2-3/4 cup vinegar

Steps:

Peel potatoes; place in a large saucepan and cover with water. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and cook for 30-40 minutes or until tender but firm.
Meanwhile, in a large skillet, cook the bacon over medium heat until crisp. Remove to paper towels; drain, reserving 3 tablespoons drippings. When cool enough to handle, crumble bacon; set aside.
In the drippings, saute onion and celery until tender. Stir in flour, sugar, salt and pepper until blended. Add water and vinegar. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened.
Drain potatoes; slice and place in a large bowl. Add the bacon and sauce; toss gently to coat. Serve warm or at room temperature.
