    Ceasar Salad Dressing
    Mayo
    Bacon - Fried to crisp
    Red onion/Shallots
    Eggs
    And peas if you like them!!

    Ours is really basic - potato, onion & mayo, sometimes a bit of sour cream too. Aaron's Omi makes a beautiful German Potato Salad with diced gherkins & lots of other things in it, but it's a family recipe so I haven't been able to get it yet

    A lady from another forum gave us this recipe - I've made it and its delish!

    Rels tatie salad.....

    1kg boiling/salad spuds (makes all the difference)
    4-5 rashers bacon chopped roughly
    1 onion, chopped
    60gm butter
    4 eggs (boiled), chopped
    3/4 cup cucumber, skin on, sliced finely

    Dressing

    2 parts S & W whole egg mayonnaise
    1 part light sour cream
    Finely chopped dill to taste (i use an entire packet of the ones in the vegie section at Coles)
    (i don't have specigic measurements for the dressing as it dpends how "wet" you like your salad)

    Boil cubed chunks of tatie until just cooked (either peeled or not) drain and place in bowl, saute onion and bacon in butter until cooked add to taties. When cool add the cucmber and chopped eggs. Combine dressing ingredients and mix into tatie mixture.....

    Mine is just a simple one but taste delicious.

    6 Potatoes (depends on how much you want)
    Praise traditional creamy mayonaise
    Shallots

    Boil the potatoes til they are tender not soft.
    Drain and cover. Put in the fridge to cool.
    When cooled or ready to be served add mayo and chopped shallots.

    Simple but good.

    As i'm a haphazard bit of this bit of that bit of whatever in the kitchen i can't give you exact quantities, escpecially as i say 'it's made to taste'.

    I just cook up 6-8 medium-large size spuds until they're soft enough to poke a fork into but not crumble, IYKWIM. Then of course let them cool for min 30 mins or you'll find it ends up a bit like mash.
    Mix in a tub of mayonnaise (coles brand goes just fine, but if you get something like kraft, it does have a richer, smoother taste to it).
    Mix in half a jar of Masterfoods Honey Wholegrain Mustard. It a) gives a nice flavour b) gives a bit of colour.
    Dice as much spring onion to your desire.
    And if throwing in some sliced boiled eggs takes your fancy it's also a nice touch.
    Mix it all together!

    I do a my families german potato salad:

    Potatoes, cooked untill just tender (smaller potatoes are best as they aren't as dry and crumbly)
    Tommy mayonaise (german whole egg mayonaise)
    Speck, cubed and fried
    Ghurkins (dill ones are best), diced
    Boiled egg, diced
    salt and pepper to taste

    Sorry i don't have quantities, I just do it as I go. It's very yummy though
