Potato Salad
serves 2-4
Recipe from cookthink
A classic potato salad can be made even a bit better if you make your own mayonnaise. Or maybe even a paprika mayonnaise, for a bit of spice.
ingredients
2 pounds new potatoes, washed and cut into bite-size pieces
1 celery stalk, diced
4 green onions, thinly sliced
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
3/4 cup mayonnaise
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
timer
prep: 10 minutes
total: 40 minutes
tools
large pot
colander
large bowl
small bowl
instructions
1. Put the potatoes and 2 teaspoons of salt in a large pot. Barely cover with cold water and bring to a simmer over medium-high heat. Gently simmer until the potatoes are just tender -- they'll fall off a knife when pierced and lifted from the water, 10-15 minutes.
2. Drain the potatoes in a colander and rinse with cold water to stop them from cooking. Let them drain again and then pat them dry.
3. In a large bowl, gently toss the potatoes with the celery, green onions and parsley.
4. In a small bowl, mix the mayonnaise together with the vinegar, and then stir the mixture into the potatoes to coat. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
