My Potato Salad
My Potato Salad
red potatoes
salt
pepper
chopped onion.
canola oil
2 tablespoons of vinegar
Mayonnaise to taste (I use Cains Mayonnaise)
lettuce leaves
hard boiled eggs, sliced
parsley
I like to use the red potatoes, because I don't have to peel them. I cut them up
and boil them until tender. I place them in a large bowl and cut them even
smaller. Add salt, pepper and chopped onion. Add oil (I use canola oil) Make
sure all the potatoes have oil on them. I mix them with my hands. Place in
refrigerator overnight. Remove and add about 2 tablespoons of vinegar and
Mayonnaise to taste. Taste and see if it has enough zing to it. If not, add a
little more salt, taste again, if not zingy add another tablespoon of vinegar.
I make this all the time in the summer. Everyone loves it. Make sure you
have enough mayonnaise to make it moist. I use Cains Mayonnaise. My husband
only likes that brand. To serve the salad: at the last moment place on nice
platter or bowl. Stick some lettuce leaves around the sides with ruffles up.
Make some hard boiled eggs and slice them with an egg slicer. Place these
around the top of the salad. Sprinkle with parsley to add some color to the
potatoes.
