Potato Salad Recipe

Preparation Steps

1. 1

   Cook the Potatoes

   Begin by washing the potatoes thoroughly. Place them in a large pot with enough water to cover them completely. Bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat. Once boiling, reduce to a simmer and cook for 15-20 minutes or until fork-tender. Drain the potatoes and allow them to cool.

2. 2

   Chop Ingredients

   While the potatoes are cooling, chop the celery, red onion, and pickles into small pieces. Set aside.

3. 3

   Prepare the Dressing

   In a large mixing bowl, combine the mayonnaise, mustard, salt, black pepper, and paprika. Mix until well combined.

4. 4

   Combine the Salad

   Once the potatoes are cool, peel (if desired) and cut them into bite-sized pieces. Add the chopped potatoes to the bowl with the dressing, followed by the chopped celery, red onion, and pickles. Mix gently to coat all ingredients with the dressing.

5. 5

   Final Touches

   Chop the fresh parsley and sprinkle it over the salad. Give the salad a final gentle toss to incorporate the parsley evenly.

6. 6

   Chill and Serve

   Cover the potato salad and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld. Serve chilled as a side dish.
