Ingredients

  • 1 kg potatoes, peeled and diced into large pieces
  • 1 tsp chicken stock or 1 stock cube
  • 4 or more rashers streaky bacon
  • 120 grams blue cheese
  • 1/2 small spanish onion, finely diced
  • 1/4 cup sweet gherkins, finely diced
  • 1/2 cup greek yoghurt
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise. I use KRAFT mayo, the tangy kind, not whole egg for this
  • 2 tbsp lemon juice
  • 2 tbsp finely sliced fresh chives

Method

  • Place potatoes in a large pot and cover with water.
  • Add stock to water and bring to the boil.
  • Cook potatoes for approx 15 mins, until tender.
  • Drain and set aside
  • Meanwhile, cook bacon in heated frying pan until crisp.
  • Place on paper towel and set aside
  • Combine yoghurt, mayonnaise and lemon juice in a bowl.
  • If you like the cheese to have texture, crumble into the mixture.
  • If you want the cheese to add a dimension of flavour without the texture, blitz in a food processer.
  • Add the chives and mix well
  • Place potatoes, onion and gherkins in a large serving bowl.
  • Crumble the bacon through as you go.
  • Pour over the cheese dressing and mix thoroughly.
  • Enjoy as a tasty side
