Cook the potatoes in their skins until tender. Meanwhile, cook the prepared beans in salted water for 8-10 minutes, then rinse with cold water. Fry the bacon in a pan with olive oil, add the shallots, then deglaze with a generous splash of vinegar and let it simmer slightly. Peel the potatoes, slice them, and place them in a bowl. Add the beans. Pour over the hot vinegar and bacon mixture and season with salt, pepper, and more vinegar, if desired. If the salad is too dry, add a little more olive oil.
