Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 medium Russet potatoes
- 2 medium Carrots
- 1 cup Frozen peas
- 1 cup Mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons Heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons Chopped parsley
- 1 tablespoon Lime juice
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 2 large Hard-boiled eggs
Instructions
Peel and dice the potatoes into bite-sized cubes. Peel and dice the carrots into similarly sized pieces to ensure even cooking.
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the diced potatoes and carrots, and cook for about 10 minutes or until fork-tender but not mushy. In the last 2 minutes of cooking, add the frozen peas to the pot. Drain and rinse the vegetables under cold water to stop the cooking process.
While the vegetables are cooling, prepare the dressing. In a small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, heavy cream, lime juice, salt, and black pepper until smooth and well-combined.
Peel and dice the hard-boiled eggs into small pieces.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooled potatoes, carrots, peas, and diced hard-boiled eggs. Add the dressing and gently toss to coat all the ingredients evenly.
Sprinkle the chopped parsley over the top and give it another gentle stir.
Refrigerate the salad for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld together.
Serve the salad chilled as a side dish with grilled meats, poultry, or seafood. Enjoy!
