Answer 2

A simple one:

German potato salad:
Boil several good sized potatoes in salted water...
Fry some bacon, and crumble it. Keep the fat.
Chop up an onion, and 2 or 3 sweet pickles.
Dice the cooked potatoes. Place in a large bowl, add the bacon, pickles and onion. Warm the bacon fat, add a half glass of vinegar, a couple of tablespoons of cooking oil, and a tablespoon of sugar, stir until the sugar has melted. Pour over the potatoes serve warm with german sausages (frankfurt, bratwurst, bockwurst, etc...whichever you prefer).

A good potato salad recipe from Spain...

Boil and dice some potatoes.
Allow to cool off and place in a large bowl.
Add a small tin of peas, another of baby or diced carrots. a small tin of chopped pimentos, some tuna in olive oil (I usually use 2 small tins), 3 hard boiled eggs (diced also) and some pitted olives.
Mix in enough mayonnaise to cover. Serve chilled.
You can also add a chopped raw onion if you like, and some shrimp (prawns).
In Spain this is called "ensaladilla rusa".

Answer 4

My Mom's method is easy, good, and inexpensive: Boil the potatoes until they are still firm, but cooked though.You can use whatever kind you like, some people like the little new potatoes, with part of the skin decorously removed. I like plain peeled red potatoes. Dice sweet onions, slice some boiled eggs, use Miracle whip as the dressing. Some people put a little prepared mustard in it, I do not care for that. Can also add celery, or sweet pickles cut up if you like. Enjoy

Answer 5

Peel, cube & boil about 6-8 potatoes
4 boiled eggs ( I boil the eggs with the potatoes)
Tops of 2 green onions (dark green part only)
3-4 Tsp Mayo ( use as much or as little as you like)
salt & pepper
Drain potatoes then add chopped eggs, onions & mayo. Mix lightly. Salt & papper to taste.
Sometime I add green olives or sweet pickle relish, but mostly I like to keep it simple. Enjoy
