Method
- Boil the potatoes in a pan of lightly salted water for 18-20 minutes, until tender. Drain.
- Meanwhile, heat the oil in a frying pan over a high heat. Cook the bacon for 2 minutes. Reduce the heat to medium; add the leeks. Cook, stirring often, for 5 minutes. Cover and cook until the leeks are tender, then stir in the potatoes. Transfer to a bowl.
- In a jug, whisk the mustard, vinegar, half of the Parmesan, the oil and a splash of water. Season. Pour over the potatoes and mix well. Scatter with the remaining cheese to serve.
