Saras Special Red Potato Salad Recipes

RED POTATO SALAD

Steps:

• Place the potatoes in a large pot and cover with water. Season with salt. Bring the water to a boil over high heat, then reduce to a simmer over medium heat. Cook until the potatoes are fork tender, about 20 minutes. Drain the potatoes, then let cool slightly and cut in half or quarters (depending on the size of the potatoes). Let cool completely, about 1 hour.
• Meanwhile, in a large bowl, whisk to combine the mayonnaise, sour cream, vinegar, mustard, salt, and pepper.
• Add the celery, dill, and cooled potatoes to the bowl with the dressing. Stir gently to combine. Top with crispy bacon right before serving.

Steps:

• Peel the potatoes. Rinse them and dry them. Cut them into 1/4-inch thick slices.
• Heat the goose fat in a large, heavy pot over a medium-high heat. When it is good and hot, put the potatoes in and cover them. Lower the heat to low, and let them cook 1/2 hour.
• Skin the garlic, and chop them in a food processor or by hand. Chop the parsley.
• When the potatoes have cooked 1/2 hour, turn them gently with a long handled spoon so the crispy bottom bit moves towards the top. Add more goose fat if it is necessary.
• Add the chopped garlic, add the salt and pepper, cut the cèpes in half and add them to the pot, cover and cook for another 10 minutes.
• Finish cooking by turning the heat to high to brown the potatoes once again. Add the parsley. Turn them again with a spoon. Turn onto a platter and serve.
• This goes well with roasts, duck of any kind, chicken, omelettes, or just anything, really!
