Steps:
- Cut potatoes into bite size pieces and boil until cooked through.
- Finely chop your pickle, celery, red onion and bell pepper, then set aside.
- In a bowl big enough to fit your potatoes and chopped veggies mix the oil, vinegar, spices, mustard and hot sauce (I recommend adding more spice and mustard depending on your taste, I just pour spice in and I don't really measure).
- When potatoes are finished, drain the water in a colander and pour the cooked potatoes into the bowl with the oil and vinegar dressing you just prepared.
- Now add your chopped veggies in the potato bowl and mix everything together with a spoon carefully so as not to mash up the potatoes (or you can toss it with your hands). Add salt and pepper to taste.
- Refrigerate for a few hours until chilled or overnight. Serve chilled.

Steps:
- Place the potatoes into a large pot and cover with salted water. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until tender, 10 to 15 minutes. Drain and allow to steam dry for a minute or two. Place the potatoes into a large bowl, and chill in the refrigerator until cold, about 1 hour.
- While the potatoes are boiling, place the eggs into a saucepan in a single layer and fill with water to cover the eggs by 1 inch. Cover the saucepan and bring the water to a boil over high heat. Once the water is boiling, remove from the heat and let the eggs stand in the hot water for 15 minutes. Pour out the hot water, then cool the eggs under cold running water in the sink. Peel once cold. Chop the eggs, and place into the bowl with the potatoes.
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Cut the bell peppers in half, and remove the seeds, core, and stems. Place the bell peppers onto a baking sheet, cut sides down. Cut the onion in half, and place it onto the baking sheet, cut sides down.
- Roast the peppers and onion in the preheated oven until the skin of the vegetables has charred in places, about 25 minutes. Remove any large pieces of burned skin, and chop the peppers and onions. Transfer into the bowl with the potatoes and eggs.
- In a bowl, stir together the mayonnaise, horseradish mustard, chipotle peppers, adobo sauce, dill, garlic, cumin, and salt and pepper until thoroughly combined. Pour the dressing over the potato mixture, and lightly toss until the potatoes, eggs, and vegetables are thoroughly coated with dressing. Chill before serving.

SPICY CHINESE POTATO SALAD
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.

Tips:
- Use a variety of potatoes: Red potatoes, Yukon Gold potatoes, and fingerling potatoes all work well in potato salad. You can also use a combination of different types of potatoes for a more complex flavor and texture.
- Cook the potatoes properly: The potatoes should be cooked until they are fork-tender but not mushy. Overcooked potatoes will fall apart when you mix them with the other ingredients.
- Use a flavorful dressing: The dressing is what makes potato salad so delicious. Be sure to use a dressing that has a good balance of flavors, such as a mayonnaise-based dressing, a vinaigrette, or a mustard-based dressing.
- Add mix-ins: Mix-ins are a great way to add flavor and texture to potato salad. Some popular mix-ins include celery, onions, hard-boiled eggs, bacon, and cheese.
- Chill the potato salad before serving: Potato salad is best served cold. Chill the potato salad for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld together.
Conclusion:
Potato salad is a classic summer dish that is perfect for potlucks, picnics, and barbecues. It is a versatile dish that can be made with a variety of ingredients, so you can easily customize it to your liking. With these tips, you can make a delicious potato salad that everyone will love.
