This is a simple variant of the typical German mayonnaise-based potato salad. This particular recipe comes from a family in the rolling hills of Upper Hesse.
Ingredients
Salad
1kg Firm Potatoes, i.e., potatoes that hold up well after boiling
1 Large Onion c. 50-100g
1 Large Apple
100g of Spiced Pickles
Sauce
100g Light Mayonnaise
100g Sour Cream
1-2 Tbsp Mustard
Salt and Pepper
Instructions
Boil the potatoes with the skin until they are almost completely soft, c. 20 minutes.
Remove the potatoes from the boiling water and rinse with cold water immediately. Then let it cool.
Optionally, you can now peel the potatoes but then cut them into smallish cubes.
Peel the apple and cut it into cubes as well
Chop the onion and the pickles into small chunks
Mix the vegetables together
To make the sauce, mix all of the sauce ingredients together. If the sauce is too thick, add some pickling juice until the right consistency is met.
Now combine everything and mix until the sauce has coated everything.
Let sit in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, then salt and pepper to taste.
