Boil the potatoes in salted water for 15 minutes or so till they are tender to the fork.

Add the onions to the pan and cook till tender Add some black pepper while the onions are cooking.

Add the iceberg lettuce and toss gently.

Add half the bacon and toss gently.

 

 

Add the rest of the bacon chunks on top of the salad for garnish and serve.
This salad will stay good for several hours. In time the lettuce will wilt a bit. If you want to make ahead, it is better to assemble all the ingredients except the lettuce and bacon, and add them just before serving.
