Description
Delicious tried and true potato salad with a few simple ingredients.
Ingredients
2 lbs red potatoes, peeled and cut in half
1/2 red onion, chopped
3 stalks celery hearts, chopped
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup sour cream
4 stalks fresh parsley, chopped or 2 Tbsp dried parsley
1 Tbsp celery seed
salt & pepper
Instructions
Place potatoes in a large saucepan and cover with water. Cook on high until boiling and reduce to med high and cook until done. Drain and spread out on tray in a single layer and cool fully. This will also dry the potatoes.
When cooled, cut potatoes into bite sized pieces. Add celery, onions, celery seed, parsley and salt & pepper. In a separate bowl, mix mayonnaise and sour cream until well combined. Add to potatoes and mix together well. Season further to taste.
Add more mayo mixture if desired. You can also add some hard boiled eggs to potato salad if desired.
Notes
Make sure you don’t shortcut and omit the cooling and drying stage of the cooked potatoes. The mayo really sticks to the potatoes when they are cooled and dried.
