Ingredients:

2 tbsps

Vegetable Oil

40 g

Slab Bacon

Directions:

1

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F

2

Place the potatoes in the basket of a vegetable steamer

3

Steam until a sharp paring knife easily enters the flesh, 20 to 25 minutes

4

Transfer the potatoes to a bowl

5

When cool enough to handle, peel the potatoes and cut into 1/3-inch-thick slices

6

Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat

7

When it is hot, add the potatoes

8

Cook, tossing occasionally, until the potatoes are golden brown

9

Transfer to an ovenproof dish and bake for 20 to 30 minutes

10

This last step renders the potatoes crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside

11

A few minutes before the potatoes are ready, saute the bacon (or pancetta) over medium-high heat until golden

When the potatoes are ready, add the bacon, sprinkle with the chives and coarse salt; transfer to a serving dish or onto individual plates
