I make my potato salad made with warm potatos (not hot), scallions, mayo and balsamic vinegar - mum makes hers with half mayo, half salad cream, when I worked for JL we made the dressing for eggs and potatos with mayo and vinegar from the pickled onions...Eat food.

I cook my cubed potatoes, then drain them and toss them in a mix of white wine vinegar, olive oil, salt and pepper, whilst still hot. Leave to cool then mix in mayo, creme fraiche, chopped spring onions, chopped dill and parsley.Squares knitted for my throw ~ 90 (yes!!! I have finally finished it :rotfl: )Squares made for my patchwork quilt ~ 80 (only the "actual" quilting to do now :rotfl:)0

I boil my potatoes unpeeled - dont overcook them otherwise they will crumble. Leave to cool and peel off the skins when cold (I really do think it give a better flavour peeling once cooked and cooled). Cut into cubes. Mix up salad cream with a bit of milk. Add grated onion and grated apple. Mix all together carefully so you dont mush the potatoes. I like to add in those peppers you buy in the jars (for the life of me cant remember the name
) or sometimes I grate a boiled egg or two for the top. Top off with sprinkling of paprika.....

My dad makes his like mash. He boils peeled potatoes, mashes with salad cream and adds chopped spring onions, salt and pepper.
I find this weird, and don't like salad cream, so I make mine by steaming new potatoes cut into inch cubes, and adding to lowfat plain yoghurt with spring onions and seasoning. Often a touch of lime or lemon juice to add a bite.

Cooked new potatoes add chopped onions, salt/pepper and a dash of good quality olive oil. Mix whilst warm.
Use up leftover mashed potatoes, add onions and mayo0 -
