GERMAN POTATO SALAD - MICROWAVE



German Potato Salad - Microwave image

I've been making this fast, easy recipe for over 20 years! There is almost no clean up and it's very tasty. This can be served piping hot, but we prefer it just barely warm. If you like less zip from the vinegar, just reduce the amount to 1/8 cup. Cooking time includes potato cooking time.

Time 30m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

5 medium potatoes
5 slices bacon
1/4 cup onion, finely chopped
1/4 cup celery, finely chopped
3/4 cup water
1/4 cup cider vinegar
3 tablespoons light brown sugar, packed
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
2 tablespoons flour
3 tablespoons parsley, chopped fine

  • Wash and pierce potatoes all over with fork. Microwave on paper toweling for 7 minutes. Turn over and microwave for another 7-8 minutes. Remove from microwave and set aside to cool.

  • Stir together water, vinegar, sugar, salt, pepper and flour until no lumps remain. Add to cooked bacon in dish and microwave for 1-1/2 minutes. Stir thoroughly. Keep microwaving and stirring every minute until the sauce becomes thick.

Tips:

  • For a smoky flavor, roast the potatoes in the oven before slicing them.
  • Use a variety of potatoes for a more complex flavor and texture.
  • Don't overcrowd the potatoes in the microwave; cook them in batches if necessary.
