Warm German Potato Salad

This dish is so good on chilly nights!

9 medium potatoes
1-1/2 lbs smoked sausage or fully cooked bratwurst links
6 bacon strips
3/4 cup chopped onion
2 tbsp all-purpose flour
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp celery seed
1/8 tsp pepper
1/4 cup sugar
1-1/3 cups water
2/3 cup cider vinegar

In a saucepan, cook potatoes in boiling salted water until tender.
Meanwhile, cut sausage into 1/2-in. slices; saute in a skillet until browned. Drain and place in a large bowl. Drain potatoes; peel and cut into 3/4-in. cubes. Add sausage; keep warm.
Cook bacon until crisp; crumble and set aside. Drain all but 3 tablespoons of drippings; saute onion in drippings until tender. Stir in the flour, salt, celery seed and pepper; blend well. Add sugar, water and vinegar; bring to a boil. Boil for 2 minutes.
Pour over potato mixture and stir gently to coat. Sprinkle with bacon. Serve warm.
