Recipe | Mary Berry's "French Potato Salad"





Mary Berry's "French Potato Salad" 

This potato salad is not meant to be claggy, it is definitely not a recipe to replicate the 50% mayonnaise potato salads that are hard and glutenous This is so simple, quick and delicious. As with all Mary Berry's recipes, you can trust them to work first time and then alter them to your taste.

RECIPE 

1 Serving of Mary Berry's Vinaigrette (see recipe on my blog).
1 lb New Potatoes
2 Tablespoons of finely chopped chives.
1/2 an Onion, Very finely chopped.
2 Tablespoons of Hellman's Mayonnaise (or more/less to taste).

INSTRUCTIONS
Chop the new potatoes to make them all similar in size so they evenly cook.
Boil them in salted water until tender.
When cooked, leave them to steam in the saucepan with the lid on.

Pour over the vinaigrette and stir.
Add the chives and onions.
Add the mayonnaise small amount at a time until the potatoes are lightly covered.

This potato salad is meant to be lightly dressed and served warm. We have it with our BBQ meats in the summer, also as a healthy-ish comfort food with proper sausages in hot dog buns and salad. As I type this I am remembering that this hasn't happened since before Christmas so I will add it to our meal plan for the upcoming weeks and take some pics.
