Homemade Potato Salad
Cowbridge Kitchen
Getting this potato salad right is a bit of a skill, you need to get the potatoes Al Dente then cool them down fast.
This potato salad has a hint of lemon and Chive added to the mayonnaise for a special taste. Potato salad is great served with Sweet Chilli Chicken as the contrast between the cold salad and the chilli is a perfect combination.
Potato salad is great Summer or Winter either as a BBQ side dish or a Buffet item.

How to Make Potato Salad
Potato salad is a salad dish made from boiled potatoes, usually containing a dressing and a variety of other ingredients such as boiled eggs and raw vegetables.
In American restaurants, it is generally considered a side dish, and usually accompanies the main course.
This recipe for Potato Salad makes use of Lemon and Chive to add a citrus kick and in the video I have used baby new potatoes with the skins on.
I like to mix this cold salad with a spicy 'Sweet Chilli Chicken', the contrast between the Hot & Cold works so well.

Cooking Instructions
-
No need to peel these potatoes, just cut them into even halves or thirds.
-
Get the potatoes into a pan of salted , boiling water and simmer for about 10 minutes. You want these potatoes to be just cooked (Al dente) so keep checking them and do not over cook them.
-
With a sharp knife , test the potatoes every 3 minutes. As soon as the knife starts to go into the potato with little effort, they are cooked.
-
Get the pan straight off the heat and under some running cold water, until the potatoes are cold.
-
Drain the potatoes off in a colander.
-
Get the dry potatoes in to a large mixing bowl, then add the Mayo and mix together well.
-
Add the lemon juice and chopped chives.
-
Fold the lot together with a wooden spoon, then set in the fridge to cool down before using.
