Dice finely, a large red onion, Cook your potato's leave the skin, on new potatos are ideal or reds.  cut into chunks, mix sour cream (or greek yoghurt)  and a dash of grain mustard and fold potatos and onion through, sprinkle with parsley. You can use mayo instead of sour cream, but sour cream is much nicer.

That's the way I make it to earth but I also boil some eggs, slice them up (mum used to have a great egg slicer thingy) and add them - yummo!!!

We use mayo as i dont like sour cream-make sure you find a mayo you like though :-)

Put some finely chopped fresh mint in as well for an extra taste
-Tastes Lovely!

I went to my sister in laws for a party and she made the yummiest potatoe salad I have ever tasted. I never asked her for the recipe but if you have any idea how to cook it wouldn't be hard to figure out the taste.
She roasted some small potatoes that were cut in quarters
she fryed some bacon cut into strips and a red onion cut into rings then cut the rings in half.
the sauce was your basic mustard, sour cream , galic and anything else you fancy.
Easy yet yummy.

Morning my lovely food sweeties,
Yep! cook some potatoes, cool & dice.  Mix some whole egg mayo with whole grain mustard to you taste.  Toss through potatoes and yummy!  Easy peasy. 

Yes! boiled chopped eggs added would be nice too!

Instead of cutting up bacon, I buy 100g of bacon bits, they take 30 seconds to brown in the pan and I mix that through.

in my potatoe salald  I add a little stock powder to my mayo mix, veg or chicken, some dried onion chives, if your mayo is a bit on the suck in the cheeks side, I add a teaspoon of sugar, fine chopped onion, mix  your mayo bit up while you are boiling your potatoes so it can sit for a while. I let my potatoes go ice cold before adding the mayo as it seems you need less mayo and it stays creamier.
Sliced Egg over the top for dressing and bacon is yummy as well.

I have never tried it with mustard or cornrelish so I will next time, specially now it is getting warmer Hubby prefers ppotatoes salad to boiled ones and it is easy enough to make up....

I also like it when some potatoes stay whole and firmish but some go mushy :0)

The grain mustard is the nicest for this dish, children will eat it, and it doesn't have a bite like the normal mustards, a little sweeter in flavour actually.

tip from me: dont dice but slice the wax potato, add mayo, ( i use soja), evaporated milk (tin) or cream and gherkin, chicken stock and pepper. quick and easy

Dill is great in potatoe salad as well.

We use boiled potatoes with skin on, pruscitto or cooked bacon, boiled eggs, mayo, mustard and dill. (Aldi had these jars of dill mustard that go great in potatoe salad with mayo.)

Hi I just boil the potatos and eggs together, let to cool and slice thinly, while they are cooking caramelise the onion and brown the bacon and set aside, mix together some mayo and sour cream with salt, pepper and some parsley and mix it all togther in a big bowl, let it cool in the fridge .
Cheers

Ive never made this potato salad but have had it at a conferene I went to the  other week and it was so nice

Ive never made The basic potato salad is a German recipe: Boil 750gm firm cooking potatoes in their skin, drain and peel while still hot (use rubber gloves), slice when luke-warm and pour over 250ml hot beef or vegetable stock. Let sit for a while, then drain. Add a small chopped onion, salt & pepper. Prepare a dressing from 3Tbsp Oil, about 4Tbsp Wine vinegar and a good tbsp chopped herbs. Rest for 1-2 hours. That's the basic recipe. You can then add to taste: Mayonaise, chopped parsley, chives, finely diced pickles, chopped egg, chopped bacon or ham, finely sliced sausage - whatever takes your fancy
