39 degrees today – WOW this is bonkers – nobody wants to eat anything hot in this weather so it’s salads all the way!!
I think lots of people make potato salad and have their own recipe. If they don’t – they should – shop bought ones IMHO are gross. They are claggy, full of unnecessary calories and have a weird after taste.
This salad basically takes little time to prep and is ready in the space it takes to boil your spuds!
I don’t eat meat any more so go for veggie sausages but you can’t beat wurst and Kartoffelsalat. Whether you have it as a side for a bbq or the main part of a meal this salad will definitely hit the spot!
1kg waxy potatoes
3 tablespoons mayo
3 tablespoons half fat
Crème fraîche
2 large gherkins

Large handful of finely chopped dill

1 teaspoon white wine vinegar
Boil your potatoes as long as is required before they are soft.
Drain and place in a bowl
Chop the hard boiled eggs and gherkins finely
Add all ingredients and mix together
Serve with sausages for a German feel!
