Categories     Potato Salads

Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 pounds medium red potatoes unpeeled.
6 hard cooked eggs
1/4 cup vegetable oil
1 stalk celery, chopped
1/2 red bell pepper, chopped
1/4 cup of green onions tops, chopped
1 sweet pickle, finely chopped
2 tablespoons fresh cilantro minced
2 teaspoons fresh lime juice
1 teaspoon white vinegar
3/4 cup mayonaise
1 teaspoon hot pepper sauce
salt and pepper to taste

Steps:

  • 1. Please read through the instructions before you make the recipe, because some of the ingredients go in separately to make the dressing.
  • 2. Boil the eggs and cool. Separate the eggs from the whites. Set aside. Quarter the red potatoes and boil them in water with a teaspoon of salt. Make sure they are done, but not over cooked. Drain thoroughly, and cool the potatoes and then dice them.
  • 3. In a large bowl, mash the egg yolks, stir in the oil, vinegar and lime juice. Add mayonaise, pepper sauce, and season with salt and pepper. Mix well with a whisk.
  • 4. Add diced potatoes to the mayonaise mixture along with the pickle, green onions, red pepper and celery. Chop egg whites fine and add to the salad. Stir gently, but mix well.
  • 5. Refrigerate until serving time. Enjoy!

Tips:

  • For the perfect potato salad, use waxy potatoes. They hold their shape better than starchy potatoes when cooked, resulting in a salad that is less likely to become mushy.
  • Cook the potatoes until they are just tender. Overcooked potatoes will fall apart too easily.
  • Let the potatoes cool completely before adding the other ingredients. This will help prevent the salad from becoming watery.
  • Use a light hand when dressing the salad. You don't want to overpower the potatoes with too much mayonnaise or dressing.
  • Season the salad to taste. Add salt, pepper, and other seasonings until the salad is to your liking.
  • Serve the salad immediately or chill it for later. Potato salad is best served chilled, but it can also be served at room temperature.
