Review of last recipe (photo above) - What a surprise! These were really good, and I think a good use for canned potatoes would be for home fries.  The nice thing was they didn't taste old, like second time around potatoes usually do.

TODAY'S RECIPE - HOT POTATO-KIELBASA SALAD
Whenever this recipe was published (no date on it), the cost per serving was 79 cents ... $4.74 total!

Serves 6

3 lbs. small red skin potatoes
1 lb kielbasa
3/4 cup water
1 medium sized onion, chopped (about 1/2 cup)
2 tbsp oil
1 tbsp flour
1/2 cup vinegar
2 tbsp sugar
1 tsp caraway seed
1/2 tsp celery seed
1/8 tsp pepper
1/2 cup sliced radishes
1/2 cup parsley, chopped

Scrub potatoes and cut into quarters.  Cook in boiling salted water until tender. Drain and keep warm.

Cut kielbasa into 1 1/2" lengths and cut 3 slits in each piece, cutting almost to the bottom.  combine with 3/4 cup water in a small saucepan.  Bring to a boil, cover.  Lower the heat and simmer 3 minutes.  Drain, saving 1/2 cup of the cooking liquid.  Keep kielbasa warm.

Saute onion in oil in a large skillet until lightly browned, stirring often.  Blend in flour until smooth.  stir in reserved cooking liquid, vinegar, sugar, caraway seed, celery seed and pepper.  Cook, stirring constantly over medium heat until mixture thickens and bubbles.

Add potatoes, kielbasa, radishes and parsley; toss to mix.  Serve.
