This potato salad is....well......Potatoes! And some onion dressed with broth, oil and vinegar. So simple. So flavorful, and it goes wonderfully with chicken, pork, beef or sausages!

Ingredients

Instructions

  • Peel Potatoes then cut in quarters. Place in a pan, cover with water and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to simmer, cover the pan and cook about 12 minutes until just barely tender. If you can easily insert a fork, they are done!
  • Remove the Potatoes from the heat and drain well. When cool enough to handle, place them on a cutting board and slice about 1/4 thick. Place the slices in a medium size bowl.
  • Finely chop your Onion and sprinkle it over the Potatoes.
  • Measure out 3/4 Cup of Beef or Chicken Broth. If you're a Vegetarian, I think Vegetable Broth would work just fine, but I have not tried it.
  • Gently stir in the Beef or Chicken Broth so as not to break up the potatoes.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together the Oil, Vinegar, Mustard, Sugar, Salt and Pepper.
  • Pour this Vinaigrette over the Potato mixture and gently stir to combine. Mixture will be runny but the potatoes will absorb a lot of the dressing.
  • Taste and add more Salt and Pepper if needed. Now, it's up to you to decide how you want it served. Hot, cold or room temperature. I served it room temperature and it was delicious! We enjoyed it with some cooked on the grill Hamburgers. Sparky and I also love it with Bratwurst! I hope you'll give it a try and enjoy this recipe half as much as I enjoy sharing it with you. Journey On!
