Directions for Preparation

Easy directions

  1. Wash the potatoes well and cut out any dark spots or bruises. Place in a large pot and cover with water.
  2. Bring up to a boil. Cook for 8 to 10 minutes or until the potatoes are cooked but not yet soft.
  3. Dunk in cold water. Leave the potatoes sitting in the cold water while you prepare the other ingredients. The longer you let the potatoes sit, the better.
  4. In a large bowl, stir the other ingredients until combined. 
  5. Lastly, drain the potatoes well. Toss into the bowl.
  6. Stir gently until coated with the sauce.  Keep refrigerated until ready to serve. 

For a lighter dish, use light sour cream or plain yogurt instead of regular sour cream.
