POTATOES AU LARD (a French recipe)

Cut some bacon into small pieces, put these in a stewpan with a bit of butter, and let them brown. When the bacon is three-parts done, throw in a little flour, add salt, pepper, parsley, a bunch of sweet herbs, and a bay-leaf. Moisten with some stock. When these ingredients have boiled a few minutes, put in the potatoes half done, peeled, and cut into pieces. Skim clean, and serve.
