Instructions
- 1Clean and peel the potatoes and cut them into even size chunks. Boil them in salted water for about 10 min and then add the cleaned and chopped apples into the boiling water. Add the cinnamon stick as well. Leave to boil for another 10 minutes or until both apples and potatoes are to your liking. I like mine to be fairly chunky but that is a personal preference.
- 2In the mean time bake the streaky bacon in a dry frying pan until crispy and set aside to drain on kitchen paper.

Chef tips
To achieve the richest, creamiest texture, use Desiree potatoes and mash them with the apples while they are piping hot, adding a knob of butter or some olive oil. For a special occasion, add caramelised onions on top or a hint of cinnamon to highlight the sweetness of the apples. It's a lovely side for roast meat, and children adore the sweet-and-salty balance.
