Instructions
- Peel the potatoes and cut them into bite-sized pieces, then place them in a bowl.
- Bring water to a boil in a steamer and steam the potatoes for 15 minutes, or until soft and tender.
- Gently mash the potatoes, leaving some small chunks for texture. Set aside to cool before mixing.
- Prepare the Persian cucumber slices and shallot slices by soaking them in salted water for a few minutes. Drain and squeeze them hard to remove excess water, then set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the mashed potatoes, cucumber slices, shallot slices, imitation crab meat, and seasonings: Japanese mayonnaise, condensed milk, 1 teaspoon of salt, and ground black pepper. Mix well with a spatula.
- Serve immediately, or refrigerate for 30 minutes for a chilled Japanese potato salad.
Notes
- To make a creamy potato salad, cook or steam the potatoes until soft and tender. However, we don’t want the potatoes to be overcooked, which will be too moist and easily fall apart.
- Mash the potatoes until smooth but leave a few small chunks for the perfect texture.
- Soaking cucumber and shallot slices in salted water will help remove the pungency from shallot (or onion) and make cucumber crunchier.
