Austrian Potato Salad (No Mayo)

I love what we call “Oma’s Potato Salad” … and since you forego the mayonnaise it’s #eggfree and low fat! Most importantly it’s delicious! 

Ingredients

  • white potatoes \
  • vinegar (apple cider or white
  • vegetable oil (olive or your favourite)
  • yellow mustard (or substitute your favourite such as dijon)
  • fresh ground sea salt and black pepper
  • white sugar
  • green chives

Directions

  1. Boil potatoes with the skin on in a large pot of water – I use cold to start and allow it to boil and cook until fork tender***. I don’t make them TOO tender… you don’t want them to fall apart. Just soft enough that they are cooked through.
  2. Once the potatoes are cooked – drain and allow them to cool completely. Then peel them and slice them.
  3. Place them in your salad bowl and add as much of the dressing ingredients to your taste – I use 1/3 vinegar to 2/3 oil and about a tsp of sugar just to cut the sour from the vinegar…approx. 2-3 tsp of mustard – again to your liking.
  4. Add some fresh snippets of chive for colour and flavour! You can also use finely diced, salted, red onion and/or bacon bits!
  5. If you did not allow your potatoes to cool and air dry they will likely absorb a lot of the dressing. It’s important to have let them cool and dry out! Add more dressing if needed.
  6. Store in the fridge for 2-3 days if it lasts that long!
  7. Enjoy!

Love this glowing review of this recipe! She also told me her husband loved it and that he’s super picky!
