Ingredients

Servings

For the Salad:

  • 2 lbs 900g potatoes (Yukon Gold or red potatoes), peeled and cubed
  • 3 hard-boiled eggs chopped
  • ½ cup celery finely diced
  • ¼ cup red onion finely diced
  • ¼ cup sweet pickles or relish optional

For the Dressing:

  • ¾ cup mayonnaise
  • 1 tablespoon yellow mustard
  • 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon sugar
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper
  • ½ teaspoon paprika plus more for garnish

Instructions

Step No.1: Cook the Potatoes

  1. Place the cubed potatoes in a large pot of salted water and bring to a boil. Cook for 10-12 minutes, or until fork-tender. Drain and let cool slightly.

Step No.2: Make the Dressing

  1. In a small bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, mustard, apple cider vinegar, sugar, salt, pepper, and paprika until smooth and creamy.

Step No.3: Assemble the Salad

  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine cooked potatoes, chopped eggs, celery, red onion, and sweet pickles (if using). Pour the dressing over and gently toss until everything is well coated.

Step No.4: Chill and Serve

  1. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld. Before serving, sprinkle with a little extra paprika for garnish.

Notes

  • Best Potatoes: Use waxy potatoes like Yukon Gold or red potatoes for a creamier texture.
  • For a Lighter Version: Swap Greek yogurt for half the mayonnaise.
  • Make Ahead: Potato salad tastes best after a few hours in the fridge.
  • Bacon Ranch Potato Salad: Add crumbled bacon and ranch seasoning for a smoky twist.
  • Herb Potato Salad: Stir in chopped dill, parsley, or chives for fresh flavor.
  • German Potato Salad: Use a tangy vinegar-based dressing instead of mayo.
  • Spicy Potato Salad: Add a dash of hot sauce or cayenne pepper for heat.
