Main Ingredients

  • 2 lbs potatoes
  • 1 cup mayonnaise
  • 2 celery ribs finely chopped
  • 0.5 red onion finely chopped
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons fresh dill chopped
  • 0.5 teaspoon salt

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Wash and peel the potatoes, then cut them into 1-inch cubes.
  • Place the cubed potatoes in a large pot and cover with cold water by about an inch. Add a pinch of salt to the water.

Cooking

  • Bring the water to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer until the potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork, which usually takes 10-15 minutes.
  • Drain the potatoes thoroughly and let them cool slightly in a large bowl.

Mixing

  • In a small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, chopped celery, red onion, Dijon mustard, apple cider vinegar, fresh dill, salt, and black pepper.
  • Pour the dressing over the cooled potatoes and gently toss until all potatoes are evenly coated.
  • Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. For best results, chill for a few hours or overnight.

Notes

For extra flavor, you can add some hard-boiled eggs or a sprinkle of paprika on top. Adjust seasonings to your personal preference.
