Classic potato salad recipe

  • Serves: six people
  • Prep: 10 minutes

Ingredients

  • 1.3kg potatoes, cut into 1.5cm pieces
  • Salt
  • One red onion, finely chopped
  • One-and-a-half cups of cup mayonnaise
  • One-quarter cup of chopped dill pickles
  • One tbsp Dijon mustard
  • One tbsp fresh lemon juice
  • Half tsp paprika
  • Four hard-boiled eggs, chopped
  • One-quarter cup of thinly sliced chives
  • Black pepper

Method

Make hard-boiled eggs

Lower eggs into boiling water using a slotted spoon, cover the saucepan with a lead, reduce the heat to medium-low and cook for 12 minutes.

Meanwhile, fill a bowl with about two cups of ice cubes and water; once the eggs are cooked, transfer them into the ice water and let them sit for about 30 seconds.

Using the back of a spoon, tap each egg to crack the outer shell. Put the cracked shelled eggs back into ice water to sit for another five minutes.

Then peel the eggs under a thin stream of cool running water, then set aside.

In a large pot, boil potatoes in salted water for about 12 to 15 minutes, until the potatoes are easily pierced with a knife. Drain and let cool slightly.

In a large bowl, mix red onion, mayonnaise, pickles, mustard, lemon juice, and paprika until well combined.

Fold in the potatoes, eggs, and chives; season with salt and pepper. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
