Ingredients

  • 1 kg potatoes
  • 200 g mayonnaise
  • 100 g sour cream
  • 2 tbsp Dijon mustard
  • 1 small red onion finely chopped
  • 2 celery stalks finely chopped
  • 3 hard-boiled eggs chopped
  • 2 tbsp fresh parsley chopped
  • salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

Boil the Potatoes:

  • Wash and scrub the potatoes, leaving the skins on for extra texture and flavor.
  • Cut the potatoes into bite-sized chunks.
  • Place the potato chunks in a large pot, cover them with cold water, and add a pinch of salt.
  • Bring the water to a boil and cook the potatoes for about 10-15 minutes, or until they are fork-tender but not mushy.
  • Drain the potatoes and let them cool to room temperature.

Prepare the Dressing:

  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the mayonnaise, sour cream, white wine vinegar, and optional Dijon mustard.
  • Season the dressing with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Mix the dressing until it's well combined.

Assemble the Salad:

  • Once the potatoes have cooled, add them to the bowl with the dressing.
  • Add the chopped red onion, celery, hard-boiled eggs, and fresh parsley to the bowl as well.

Mix and Chill:

  • Gently fold all the ingredients together until the potatoes are evenly coated with the dressing and the other ingredients are well distributed.
  • Taste the salad and adjust the seasonings if needed by adding more salt, pepper, or vinegar.
  • Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a lid and refrigerate for at least 1-2 hours before serving to allow the flavors to meld.

Serve:

  • Remove the potato salad from the refrigerator when you're ready to serve.
  • Garnish with extra chopped parsley if desired.
  • Enjoy your delicious homemade potato salad!
