German Style Oven Fries

Ingredients

* 4 medium to large Idaho potatoes
* 1/4 cup cider vinegar
* 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
* 4 slices smoky bacon, chopped
* 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
* Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
* 1/4 cup finely chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley

Directions

Preheat oven to 500 degrees F.

Parboil potatoes for 4 minutes in a large pot over medium heat, or pierce with fork and microwave for 6 minutes. When ready, cut into 8 wedges each and sprinkle with vinegar.

In large skillet, heat the extra-virgin olive oil over medium-high heat, add the bacon and cook until crisp. Remove with a slotted spoon to paper towels and reserve. Toss potatoes in the bacon drippings and season with sugar, and salt and pepper. Scatter onto a baking sheet and roast, in the preheated oven, until golden and crisp, about 20 minutes. Transfer potatoes to a serving bowl and toss with the parsley and the reserved bacon.
