Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 medium-sized potatoes
- 3 cups mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
- 3 celery stalks
- 1 small red onion
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley
- 3 hard-boiled eggs
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon paprika
Instructions
Peel the potatoes and cut them into bite-sized chunks.
Place the potatoes in a large pot, cover them with cold water, and add a pinch of salt. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat to a simmer. Cook for 12-15 minutes, or until the potatoes are fork-tender. Drain the potatoes and set them aside to cool.
Meanwhile, dice the celery, chop the red onion finely, and roughly chop the parsley. Peel and chop the hard-boiled eggs into small chunks.
In a large mixing bowl, combine mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, apple cider vinegar, salt, black pepper, and paprika. Stir until the dressing is well mixed.
Add the cooled potatoes, celery, red onion, parsley, and chopped hard-boiled eggs to the bowl with the dressing. Gently fold the ingredients together until everything is evenly coated, being careful not to mash the potatoes.
Taste and adjust seasoning as needed. You can add a bit more salt, pepper, or paprika to suit your preference.
Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld together.
Serve chilled and garnish with additional parsley or a sprinkle of paprika if desired.
