Potato and Gherkin Salad
- Preparation Time15 mins
- Cooking Time30 mins
- Serves4
1 1/2 pounds small tri-colored potatoes
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup chopped sweet gherkins
3 tablespoons gherkin juice
1 tablespoon yellow mustard
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/2 medium red onion, thinly sliced
5 hardboiled eggs, chopped
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley, for garnish
Paprika, for garnish
1. Place the potatoes in a large pot and cover with cold water by 1 inch. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Cook the potatoes until they fall off a fork easily, 20 to 28 minutes; drain and set aside. When cool enough to handle, slice the potatoes in half.
2. In a large bowl, mix together the mayonnaise, gherkins, gherkin juice, mustard, salt and pepper to form a dressing. Add the potatoes, the red onions and eggs, and gently fold together to coat with dressing. Taste, and adjust the seasoning as needed. Garnish with parsley and paprika.
