Ingredients

• 2 pounds red potatoes
• 0.5 cup mayonnaise
• 0.25 cup sour cream
• 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
• 2 tablespoons fresh dill
• 2 celery stalks, diced
• 0.5 cup red onion, finely chopped
• 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 hard-boiled eggs, chopped (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Wash the red potatoes thoroughly and cut them into bite-sized chunks. Leave the skins on for added texture.

Step 2

Place the potato chunks in a large pot and cover them with cold water. Add a pinch of salt to the water, and bring it to a boil over high heat.

Step 3

Reduce the heat to a simmer and cook the potatoes for 10-12 minutes or until they are fork-tender but not falling apart.

Step 4

Drain the potatoes in a colander and set them aside to cool completely. You can speed up the process by spreading them out on a baking sheet.

Step 5

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

Step 6

Add the cooled potatoes, diced celery, chopped red onion, and hard-boiled eggs (if using) to the bowl with the dressing.

Step 7

Sprinkle the fresh dill over the mixture and gently toss everything together until the potatoes are evenly coated in the dressing.

Step 8

Taste and adjust seasoning, adding more salt, pepper, or dill if desired.

Step 9

Transfer the potato salad to a serving dish, cover, and chill in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld.

Step 10

Serve cold as a side dish for picnics, barbecues, or any meal. Enjoy!
