BABY POTATOES
Preheat the oven to 200°C. Place the baby potatoes in a pot of salted water. Bring to a boil and cook until easily pierced with a fork but still firm, 10-15 minutes. Drain the potatoes. Spread them on a lightly greased roasting tray. Using a fork, gently press down, splitting the skin, but keeping them in one piece. Drizzle over some oil and season. Roast in the hot oven until crispy, 25-30 minutes. Alternatively, air fry at 200°C until crispy, 20-25 minutes (shifting halfway).
CRISPY BACON
Place a pan over medium-high heat. When hot, add the bacon strips and fry until browned and crispy, 1-2 minutes per side. Remove from the pan and drain on paper towel. Roughly chop the bacon and set it aside.
CHARRED Corn
Return the pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the Corn until lightly charred, 3-4 minutes (shifting occasionally). Remove from the pan and set aside.
SENSATIONAL SALAD
To a bowl, add the Cucumber, the bacon, the corn, the green leaves and ½ the spring onion. Season and mix well. Place the creamy mustard in another small bowl. Loosen with water in 5ml increments until drizzling consistency.
