This week I made potato salad. It is my and mr.R´ s favorite salad, but since chopping all the ingredients is time-consuming then I don´t make it very often.
Sel nädalal tegin üle pika aja kartulisalatit. Tegu on minu ja mr.R´i ühe lemmik salatiga, ent kuna selle lõikumine on kohati päris tüütu, siis ma seda väga tihti ei valmista.
For 2kg potato salad you will need:
- 800g potatoes
- 8 eggs
- an onion (if you don´t eat onion then you don´t have to add it)
- ~300g dill pickles
- ~300g ham or meat. If you don´t eat meat then you can skip the meat 🙂
- 200g of mayonnaise
- 200g of sour cream
- some dill, salt, lemon pepper
I start with boiling potatoes and eggs. I boil potatoes about 10-15 minutes depending on the size of the potatoes and once I have drained them then I always add a little bit dill to give potatoes dill flavour. When it comes to eggs then I usually boil them about 7 minutes. For the salad I dice both potatoes and eggs. Next I chop onion, dill pickles and ham and add them to the salad. Then I make the dressing. For that I mix mayonnaise and sour cream with a little it of salt, dill and lemon pepper. Once the dressing is ready I pour it on the chopped salad ingredients and mix. Easy!
2 kg salati jaoks läheb vaja:
- 800g kartuleid
- 8 muna
- sibulat (kui te sibulat ei söö, siis võite sibula ka ära jätta)
- 300g hapukurki
- 300g sinki või liha. Kui te aga liha ei söö, siis võite vabalt liha salatist ära jätta
- 200g majoneesi
- 200g hapukoort
- natuke tilli, soola ja sidrunipipart
Kõige pealt keedan salati jaoks kartulid ja munad. Kartuleid keedan 10-15 minutit olenevalt kartulite suurusest. Päris pehmeks pudruks ei tasu kartuleid kindlasti keeta, sest siis neist enam salatit teha ei saa. Mune keedan salati jaoks 7 minutit. Salatisse lähevad kartulid, munad, sibul, liha ja hapukurk kuubikuteks tükeldatuna. Salati kastme jaoks sega tavaliselt eraldi kausikeses majoneesi ja hapukoore ning lisan juurde maitse järgi tilli, soola ja sidrunipipart. Siis kallan segu salatile ning segan. Lihtne!

I used to LOVE german potato salad (that’s what we would call your one above) but I could eat tubs of it and get so fat. Luckily I’m vegan now so my new version is a lot cleaner.

🙂 I should try vegan version of this one.

I haven’t made potato salad in YEARS. Yum. Reading your recipe made me feel VERY American – at first, I was like 800 potatoes?!? ooohhhh, GRAMS. Grams of potatoes. You silly Estonians and your metric system. LOL.
Leelo says
😀 Yes we have this silly metric system 😀

This would actually be great to make for my boyfriend, who doesn’t consider anything “real” food in less it has meat. Yes, he’s fun to cook for. (SARCASM) haha
