With summer approaching and the BBQ’s being dusted off this potato salad is a delicious side dish to add to the table. Enjoy it hot or cold.
This can be made ahead and stored in the fridge and reheated if desired so its quite a versatile dish. Salads don’t have to be boring so give this one a try.
We don’t peel our spuds but if you don’t like the skins then peel them first before following the recipe. We also use tinned potatoes sometimes if we have ran out of fresh new potatoes and they work just as well.
Some recommended items from our kitchen to make this dish…
- A big time saver for chopping veg with a veg chopper, from onions to carrots this is a god send to chop quickly.
- Double sided dry and liquid measuring spoons for times when you need to measure both liquid and dry ingredients.
- A decent set of knives for chopping, with a knife sharpener which is always handy.
- Roasting tins
