2/3 cup mayonnaise
3 tablespoons finely chopped scallion whites (slice and save greens for garnish)
2 tablespoons chopped kimchi
1 1/2 tablespoons ketchup
2 teaspoons lime juice, more to taste

SPICY CHINESE POTATO SALAD



Spicy Chinese Potato Salad image

I saw a recipe like this on another web site. There were two ingredients I did not like...so by the time I changed that, I was also changing other things and came up with this....a potato salad WITHOUT the white stuff! UPDATE: My thanks to Susie D for reviewing recipe and for her honesty about the oil. It was not oily when I put it together and perhaps that was due to mixing while the potatoes were still very warm, thus absorbing the oil.

KIMCHI POTATO SALAD



Kimchi Potato Salad image

Being half Korean, I am always looking for ways to fuse my love of kimchi into pretty much anything that I make. After making this potato salad, I HAD to write this one down. It was fabulous. This recipe is a smaller batch recipe since I assumed most of my friends coming over do not have the same taste for kimchi as I do. This is such an easy recipe to manipulate according to taste and spice level. I used a potato medley from Costco that had small purple potatoes, yukons, and red potatoes.

Categories     Potato

Time 20m

Yield 2 1/2-3 cups, 2-3 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 1/2 lbs baby gourmet potato blend
2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar, divided
1/4-1/2 cup cabbage kimchi
1 whole green onion, sliced thinly
2 tablespoons cilantro, chopped
1 raw carrot, shredded
3/4 cup mayonnaise
1 tablespoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 tablespoon korean red pepper paste (gochujang)

Steps:

  • Put potatoes in a pot of cold water and a handful of salt. Boil roughly 15-18 minutes. (Do not over boil or it will fall apart)
  • Rinse with cold water so that you can cut the potatoes in half without burning your fingers. Cut potatoes in half and then pour 1 1/2 Tbsp of apple cider vinegar. Set aside.
  • In a small bowl, mix together the mayo, sugar, salt, gochujang, and remaining 1/2 Tbsp of apple cider vinegar.
  • In a large bowl, add the shredded carrot (you can use the large cheese grater setting), sliced green onion, and chopped cilantro.
  • Add the mayo dressing and the potatoes to the large bowl and mix gently. Refrigerate, then enjoy.

Tips:

  • Choose the right potatoes: Waxy potatoes, such as Yukon Gold or Red Bliss, hold their shape better than starchy potatoes, such as Russet potatoes, when cooked. This will prevent them from becoming too mushy in the salad.
  • Boil the potatoes until they are tender but still firm: You should be able to easily pierce them with a fork, but they should not be falling apart.
  • Cool the potatoes completely before adding them to the salad: This will help to prevent the salad from becoming watery.
  • Use a sharp knife to thinly slice the potatoes: This will help to ensure that they cook evenly.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan when frying the potatoes: This will prevent them from becoming soggy.
  • Season the potatoes generously with salt and pepper: This will help to bring out their flavor.
  • Use a good quality kimchi: The kimchi is the star of this salad, so make sure to use a brand that you enjoy.
  • Add the kimchi to the salad just before serving: This will help to prevent the kimchi from overpowering the other flavors in the salad.
  • Serve the salad immediately: This salad is best enjoyed fresh.

Conclusion:

Spicy kimchi potato salad is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a summer picnic or potluck. The combination of spicy kimchi, tangy vinegar, and creamy mayonnaise is sure to please everyone. This salad is also a great way to use up leftover potatoes. So next time you have some leftover potatoes, give this spicy kimchi potato salad a try. You won't be disappointed!
