Like to use potato salad as your go-to recipe when you’re asked to ‘bring a salad’?
Or are you just looking for a potato salad recipe that you can have on the table in minutes?
Look no further! This recipe is a slightly lighter take on potato salad recipes from the 70s! The MoM.Cook Club team created this recipe after one of the Mums decided to lose a little weight but couldn’t bear to part with potato salad altogether.
We love that this potato salad still uses a creamy style dressing … but is so much lighter! Feel free to introduce a little more lime juice if you want to lighten up even more.
Ingredients (serves 6 | makes 1 Large Bowl)
- 18-20 Baby Coliban Potatoes (or similar white skinned baby potatoes)
- 6 tbsp Light Sour Cream
- 1 large Lemon, deseeded and juiced
- 4 Spring Onions, finely chopped
- 6 Eggs
- 2 tsp Dijon Mustard
- 2 tsp Sea Salt Flakes
- 1 tsp White Pepper
- 2 tbsp Good Quality Whole Egg Mayonnaise
Method
- Place the baby potatoes into a saucepan and place the eggs on top. Cover with water, add a teaspoon of salt and boil until tender through to the centre of each potato. If you do not have baby potatoes, chop larger potatoes into 2 or 4 pieces to get to a size roughly the size of a golf ball.
- While the potatoes and eggs are boiling, combine the sour cream, lemon juice, mayonnaise, dijon mustard, salt and pepper and mix well.
- Once the potatoes have boiled, strain and allow to cool. Peel the eggs while the potatoes are cooling while running under cold water. While the potatoes are still a little warm, pour the dressing over all the potatoes and mix gently (we like to use food grade gloves and toss with our hands).
- Transfer the potatoes to serving bowl or platter, nestle the boiled eggs (cut into quarters) amongst the potatoes and garnish with the chopped spring onions. Sprinkle with a tiny amount of salt and pepper to serve.
If you'd like to make your Potato Salad a little more substantial you could sprinkle with bacon croutons or stir through hot smoked salmon and a little fresh dill. Small white pickled onions are also an interesting addition that adds a little crunch. You might also like to switch out the Dijon Mustard for Seeded Mustard for a stronger taste and a more grainy dressing. Here's a few more classic salads you might like to try:
- Greek Salad (so simple you can have it ready in minutes)
- Caesar Salad
- Mango Salad with Prawn & Fennel
