Cold potato salad
Cold potato salad is a classic, perhaps especially in summer with grilled goodies.But it can be eaten all year round. Here in the Czech Republic it is a regular accompaniment to schnitzels, in Denmark it is more likely to be served with meatballs (frikadeller).Nogle gange synes jeg, en hjemmelavet kartoffelsalat kan virke lidt "slap" - men hvis man tilfører både sødme og syrlighed, bliver den mere interessant efter min mening.
Ingredients
- 1 kg potatoes
- 50 g mayonnaise
- 300 g Sour cream, e.g. 9%.
- 1-1½ tbsp Dijon mustard to taste
- 1-2 tbsp lemon juice or white wine vinegar or apple vinegar to taste
- 1½-2 tbsp sugar to taste
- ½ tsp curry powder or more if you want a "curried potato salad"
- 2-3 pcs spring onions
- OR 1 onion and ½ bunch of chives
- ½-1 tsp salt to taste
- freshly ground pepper
Method
- Peel the potatoes and boil them in salted water. They must not be allowed to become mushy. Let them cool down
- Cut the potatoes into slices
- Rens og snit forårsløgene - først det grønne, der snittes fint. Derefter flækkes den hvide del på langs og snittes ligeledes fint.ALTERNATIVELY, finely chop a medium-sized onion and add it together with finely chopped chivesPour into the bowl you are mixing the dressing in
- Add the ingredients for the dressing. Start with the "minimums" as mentioned above and then taste to see if you want to increase any of them.Tag højde for, at dressingen skal smage af noget - så den ikke bliver for kedelig, når først kartoflerne blandes i.
- Mix the potatoes and dressing and season again.
