The Ultimate Potato Salad
The Ultimate Potato Salad
If you like Potato Salad, then I encourage you to try The Ultimate Potato Salad recipe, it really does take the humble Potato Salad to the next level.
Over the years I do feel the Potato Salad has been neglected somewhat. Also, when I have eaten out and potato salad has been served, inevitably it’s almost always been bought in and not made fresh on the premises. There’s nothing nicer than a home made potato salad with fresh chopped chives. However, this recipe really is the ultimate in Potato Salads, if you don’t believe me, give it a try and let me know what you think.

Ingredients
- 800 g Jersey Royals Charlotte or Anya potatoes , or another waxy variety
- 2 tsp wholegrain mustard
- 2 tbsp muscatel or white wine vinegar
- 4 tbsp olive oil
- 1 shallot very finely chopped
- 3 tbsp mayonnaise
- 2 tbsp soured cream
- 1 tbsp horseradish sauce
- Juice of ¼ of a lemon
- 2 spring onions finely sliced
- handful of crispy fried onions
DISCLAIMER
I recommend using the Metric measurements (instead of cups & spoons) for more accuracy and better results.
Instructions
- Tip the potatoes into a large pan of cold salted water. Bring to the boil, then simmer for 10 mins until tender to the tip of a knife.
- While the potatoes are cooking, whisk the mustard, vinegar, olive oil and chopped shallot together with a good pinch of salt and a grind of pepper. When the potatoes are cool enough to handle, peel if you prefer, then halve, quarter or cut them into bite-sized chunks if large, then toss in the mustard dressing until completely coated. Leave to cool completely.
- Meanwhile, mix the mayonnaise, soured cream, lemon juice and horseradish together. When the potatoes are cool, toss them through the mayonnaise mixture along with the spring onions. Tip into a dish and scatter with the crispy onions just before serving, or serve the crispy onions on the side for sprinkling over at the table.

Brilliant recipe! Thank you Mr. Paul!
Hi Judith, first of all thanks for taking time to comment, I really do appreciate that.No, I make my own onion rings-
Dear Mr. Paul,
I just read your new recipe for potato salad. Wow! Before I reached reading the last few ingredients my salivary glands were already working overtime! All of the ingredients are ones that I love to eat. I’ve heard of sprinkling crushed bacon strips over potato salad, but not onion rings. Do you buy the canned union rings for this salad?
