• 8 slices bacon, diced
• 4 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 3 tablespoons white wine vinegar
• ¼ cup chopped chives
• ¼ cup chopped cucumber
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 2 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper
• 1 medium red onion, diced

2. Whisk together the oil, vinegar, chives, cucumber, salt and pepper, then add onions.
3. Mix all ingredients except beef stock and bacon with its drippings.
4. Then mix very gently using your hands to avoid breaking up the potatoes as much as possible.

7. Serve at room temperature or warmer.
