Steps to make Spicy bacon, cucumber and potato salad:
  1. Scrub and wash the potatoes and boil them in plenty of salted water until tender - usually about 15 minutes. Drain and keep warm in the pan.
  2. Cut the bacon into 1 inch chunks. Heat the wok until almost smoking and add the oil, the dried chilies and the Sichuan peppercorns - make sure you have a window open or the extractor working full blast as these fumes will be deadly. Stir fry to release the flavours and then add the star anise.
  3. Add the bacon to the pan and cook stirring until it starts to brown around the edges. Stir in the chopped fresh chilli.
  4. Add the rice wine, the sesame oil and the vinegar, followed by the cucumber. Stir fry for a few seconds.
  5. Take the wok off the heat and stir in the potatoes. Season with salt, drizzle with lime juice and chili oil, if more heat is desired.
