Instructions to make Mama's Southern Potato Salad:
- Get the potatoes in heavily salted water, begin to slowly boil, to be able to add eggs. Add eggs when boiling starts. Cover and let boil for another 10 - 15 min.
- While the boiling is going on, prepare the onions and precooked garlic (if that's what your using, this is the garlic in the pic) Chop or dice both very finely.
- This is the chopped onion.
- Once the boiling is finished. Drain the water off of the potatoes and eggs. Cool down easiest way possible…. for me I drain the hot water off and add cold water, then refrigerate while getting other ingredients together. If I'm in a hurry I do an ice bath, pull off the heat, drain, then add ice and cold, COLD water to it. Let it sit for a few min then begin the peeling process. This way the skins of the potatoes will peel straight off with your fingers, nothing else needed.
- Once potatoes are peeled, dice LARGELY!! Peel eggs and dice LARGELY, as well. When you mix everything it will come together great, so go BIGGER on cutting up the POTATOES N EGGS!! That's kinda the great thing about this recipe your cuts don't have to be perfect!! Go ahead and add garlic and seasoning (salt, pepper, creole, ect.) and stir it up!!
- Last step!! Mix it all together!!! Add the mustard, mayo, relish!! The longer you can let it sit, and marinate, it makes it better. I usually make mine the night before and that's the way my family likes it!!
- Done and ready to serve!
Put potatoes into a large pot and cover with cold water. Bring to a boil, cover and reduce heat to medium low boiling gently until fork tender. In a large bowl, mix together all ingredients except potatoes and paprika. Fold in warm potatoes and refrigerate. Empty your potatoes into a colander, and let them drain. … I like to let cold running water flow gently over the potatoes to help stop the cooking process even quicker. … Place the drained potatoes in a large mixing bowl.
how ? Easy isn’t it? That’s the prepare mama's southern potato salad that you do at home. Good luck!
