What is the recipe for potato salad?

Question

I already boiled the 2 large potatoes, 2 eggs, and I chopped up the red bell pepper, onions, and celery. That's pretty much all I have. Do I need to cook the peppers, or onions?

And how do I make the sauce? I have mayonnaise, mustard and probably some other stuff.

I don't have any type of seeds, or parsley.

Answer 1

Just mix the mayo into it and you're all set.  Sprinkle with paprika for colour.

Answer 2

Potato salad consists of- potato, mayonnaise, onion, mustard, seasoning.

You are dressing the cooked potato, I prefer it while still warm, with mayonnaise and whatever else you fancy.

This is great served with mackeral.

Answer 3

to what you have use 1 egg not 2, add about 3 Tbs. mayo. 1 tsp. mustard 1 tsp. vinegar salt and pepper to taste and chopped onion. or granulated onion but, not onion salt. you can add a Tbs. of pickle relish if you like also.

Good Luck!

Answer 4

Potatos and salad

Answer 5

I would Peel the potatoes and slice them .

Add the finely chopped onions (uncooked)

Splash a bit of olive oil over that

Pour enough mayo to coat the lot

Mix everything together

Slice eggs and arrange on the top

This is a simple version and you will love it. I wouldn't use the other ingredients but if you want to don't cook the pepper

Dont cook your onion or bell pepper, onions, or celery.  Potato salad is also good with canned or frozen corn kernals, and red onion, but its optional.  I would make my sauce with mayo, mustard, lemon, and a tad of pepper.
