Ingredients

• 6 medium Russet potatoes
• 4 large Hard-boiled eggs
• 1 cup Mayonnaise
• 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
• 2 tablespoons Sweet pickle relish
• 1 teaspoon White vinegar
• 2 teaspoons Sugar
• 2 stalks Celery
• 1 small Red onion
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
• 0.5 teaspoons Paprika
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley

Directions

Step 1

Peel and dice the potatoes into 1-inch cubes. Place them in a large pot and cover with cold water. Add a pinch of salt to the water.

Step 2

Bring the pot to a boil over medium-high heat. Once boiling, reduce the heat to medium and cook the potatoes for 10-15 minutes, or until they are fork-tender. Drain and set aside to cool.

Step 3

While the potatoes are cooking, chop the hard-boiled eggs, celery, and red onion into small pieces.

Step 4

In a large mixing bowl, prepare the dressing by whisking together mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, sweet pickle relish, white vinegar, sugar, salt, and black pepper.

Step 5

Add the cooled potatoes, chopped hard-boiled eggs, celery, and red onion to the mixing bowl with the dressing. Gently fold the mixture until all ingredients are evenly coated with the dressing.

Step 6

Taste the potato salad and adjust the seasoning if needed with additional salt or black pepper.

Step 7

Transfer the potato salad to a serving bowl. Sprinkle paprika over the top for garnish and add a sprinkle of fresh parsley for a pop of color.

Step 8

Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld together.

Step 9

Serve chilled and enjoy!
