Best 7 Brazilian Potato Salad Aka Recipes

BRAZILIAN POTATO SALAD (WITH MAYONNAISE)

Steps:

• To make the best potato salad with mayo, place potatoes in a large pot with enough water to cover by at least 1-2 inches. Bring to a boil over high heat, add a good pinch of salt, and reduce heat to medium-low.
• Cook for about 8-10 minutes or until potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork. Drain in a colander but do not rinse them.
• Transfer potatoes to a large bowl and drizzle with vinegar. Set aside and let cool completely.
• Meanwhile, in a separate large bowl combine mayonnaise, salt and pepper to taste, lime juice, garlic, grated onion, chopped olives (green olives are usually used in this dish although I used Kalamata olives for mine), mint, cilantro (or parsley), and green onions. If desired, combine the chopped hard-boiled eggs (in this case, stir in an additional 1/4 cup of mayo into the mixture).
• Add cool potatoes to the mayo mixture, stirring gently to combine. Cover and chill for 1 to 2 hours (or more) before serving.
• Garnish top of the Brazilian potato salad with whole olives and chopped green onions. Enjoy!
