Huey's Green Bean Potato And Bacon Salad

---

My adaptation of another of huey's fabulous recipes. his salads he always categorises as sexy salads. he recommends this dish as an entrée or light lunch for four. it could, of course, also be served as a side dish. serve it warm or at room temperature, whichever you prefer. Huey (iain hewitson) is a larger than life melbourne restaurateur and chef who also features on his own extremely popular tv show. I have posted several of his recipes on zaar.
