Bangers with bite

Bratwurst with Fried Potatoes and Bacon
Serves 4

1.2kg medium size potatoes (Maris Piper, King Edward, or other floury type)
2 tbsp vegetable oil
1 onion, finely chopped
2 strips unsmoked streaky bacon, diced
salt and black pepper
400-500g bratwurst (1 or 2 each depending on size)
German mustard, to serve

1. Simmer the potatoes in their skins until just done, about 10 minutes. When cool enough to handle, peel and cut into chunks.
2. Heat the oil in a large frying pan and fry the onion and bacon until soft, about 3 minutes. Add the potatoes and fry over a medium-low heat, stirring occasionally and reincorporating any crusty golden bits from the bottom of the pan.
3. While the potatoes are cooking, grill the bratwurst on all sides until well browned. Serve with crusty bread and German mustard.
