Instructions

  1. Put the bite-sized pieces of potato and carrots into a pot filled with cold water and bring the water to a boil over high heat. Reduce the heat and cook the spuds until they are tender (about 15 minutes).
  2. Put the sliced cucumber and onions in a medium bowl and sprinkle with about ¼ teaspoon of salt. Stir this together to ensure the veggies are evenly coated, then let them sweat.
  3. Prepare your dressing by whisking the mayonnaise, rice vinegar, sugar, and salt together.
  4. When the potatoes are soft enough to easily fall apart, drain them well and add them to the dressing while still hot.
  5. Stir this together until the spuds are mostly mashed up, but don't mash the carrots.
  6. Massage the cucumbers and onions until they turn translucent, and then squeeze them between your hands to remove any excess liquid.
  7. Add the squeezed cucumber, onions, and ham to the potato mixture. Stir everything together until well combined.
  8. Plate the potato salad and then top with the boiled eggs and a generous amount of black pepper.
