Ingredients

  • 6 medium Russet potatoes
  • 3 large Eggs
  • 3 stalks Celery
  • 1 small Red onion
  • 3 tablespoons Pickle relish
  • 1 cup Mayonnaise
  • 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
  • 1 tablespoon Apple cider vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons (chopped) Fresh parsley
  • 1 teaspoon (or to taste) Salt
  • 0.5 teaspoon (or to taste) Ground black pepper
  • 0.5 teaspoon (for garnish) Paprika

Directions

Step 1

Peel the potatoes and cut them into bite-sized chunks (about 1-inch pieces).

Step 2

Place the potato chunks in a large pot, cover them with water, and add a pinch of salt. Bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat to medium and simmer for about 15-20 minutes, or until the potatoes are fork-tender but not falling apart.

Step 3

While the potatoes are cooking, place the eggs in a small saucepan, cover them with water, and bring to a boil. Once boiling, turn off the heat, cover the pan, and let the eggs sit in the hot water for 12 minutes. Then transfer the eggs to a bowl of ice water to cool for 5 minutes before peeling them.

Step 4

Drain the cooked potatoes and let them cool completely for about 15 minutes.

Step 5

Dice the celery, finely chop the red onion, and chop the hard-boiled eggs into small pieces.

Step 6

In a large mixing bowl, combine the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, apple cider vinegar, pickle relish, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to create the dressing.

Step 7

Fold the cooled potatoes, celery, red onion, and chopped eggs into the dressing, mixing gently until evenly coated.

Step 8

Taste and adjust the seasoning with more salt and pepper if needed.

Step 9

Sprinkle chopped parsley and paprika on top for garnish.

Step 10

Cover the bowl and refrigerate the potato salad for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld together.

Step 11

Serve chilled and enjoy!
