Salad with potatoes and pickles

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 40 mins

1. STEP 1

   

   How to make a salad with potatoes and pickles? Prepare all the necessary products according to the list. Cucumbers can be used either salted or pickled. I often prepare a salad from pickled cucumbers.

2. STEP 2

   

   First of all, boil the potatoes. Since we will cook it in the peel, the tubers need to be thoroughly washed with a brush to remove all the dirt. Fill clean potatoes with cold water and place on the stove. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce the flame, cover the pan with a lid and cook until the potatoes are ready. You can check the degree of readiness using a toothpick. Drain the boiling water from the pan and cool the tubers.

3. STEP 3

   

   During this time, move on to other products. Peel the onion. Red lettuce or shallots are perfect for the salad. You can use regular onion. Cut the onion into thin half rings or quarter rings. Place in a deep, small bowl.

4. STEP 4

   

   Pour vinegar over onions. Separate the rings with a fork or knife so that they marinate better. Leave it this way for 15-20 minutes.

5. STEP 5

   

   Peel the cooled potatoes.

6. STEP 6

   

   Cut the potatoes into large cubes and place in a salad bowl of a suitable size.

7. STEP 7

   

   Cut the cucumbers into thin circles or semicircles. Add to potatoes.

8. STEP 8

   

   Drain the vinegar from the onion and lightly squeeze the half rings. Add all ingredients to a salad bowl.

9. STEP 9

   

   Rinse the greens and dry. Chop the parsley finely and add to the salad. Salt and pepper everything to taste.

10. STEP 10

    

    Pour vegetable oil on top. I often use unrefined oil for potato salads; it complements such dishes perfectly.

11. STEP 11

    

    Mix everything thoroughly and taste it. Add salt if necessary.

12. STEP 12

    

    Place the finished potato salad in the refrigerator to steep for a while and serve!

Today I prepared a salad with potatoes and pickles. I boiled large potatoes and marinated regular onions in vinegar. I took pickled cucumbers. I cut everything up and put it together. Mixed well, added salt and chopped parsley. I didn't add black pepper. I seasoned the salad with aromatic sunflower oil. It turned out tasty and satisfying! I call such salads “winter”) Thanks to the author for the recipe!

I prepared a salad with potatoes and pickles especially for my husband. This salad became a complete filling dinner! I like to add red onions to salads; they are less bitter than regular onions. I marinated it in advance in apple cider vinegar and added a pinch of sugar. This onion perfectly complements the salad with its juicy crunch and spicy taste! My homemade cucumbers are not very salty, they go well with boiled potatoes. For the dressing, I mixed aromatic olive oil and a freshly ground mixture of peppers. This is a great salad with a variety of flavors!
