Ingredients
- 3 pounds small-medium waxy gold potatoes no need to peel
- 3/4 cup sour cream
- 1/4 cup mayonnaise
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1 package chives, snipped
- 1/4 red onion, thinly sliced
- 1/2 cup crushed Sour Cream and Onion potato chips
- salt and black pepper to taste
Instructions
- Boil your potatoes in well-salted water until tender. I used about 2 tsp of salt.
- Drain and slice your potatoes in halves or quarters, depending on desired size.
- Stir together the sour cream, mayonnaise, garlic powder, half of the chives, and salt and pepper to taste. I used bout 1/4 tsp salt, and a generous amount of fresh ground black pepper.
- While the potatoes are still warm, toss them with about half of the dressing. This will allow them to soak in some of it.
- Allow the potatoes to cool, then toss them with the onions and the remaining dressing.
- Chill the potato salad for at least a couple of hours, and then garnish with the remaining chives, and the Sour Cream and Onion chips. (Yes, the chips will get a little soggy after a while, so add them at the last minute, or keep them on the side for people to garnish their own servings, if you’d like!)
Notes
- You can boil your potatoes whole, or cut them up first, which will cut down the boiling time considerably. Whichever way you choose, make sure you don't over cook the poor things...check early and frequently with the tip of a sharp knife...when it slides in easily, they're done.
- If you'd like to intensify the sour cream and onion flavor, try using a sour cream and onion seasoning packet, but go easy, the stuff is potent. If you don't want all those chemicals, you can make the mix yourself, here
