Potato salad ( 8 peoples )


Potato salad is often covered in mayonnaise. The combination of yoghurt and mayonnaise makes it lower in fat and even more yummy.
Ingredients :

  • 8 medium potatoes in the skin
  • 1 tsp (5 ml) salt
  • pinch of mustard powder
  • lemon juice and black pepper to taste
  • ½ cup (125 ml) mayonnaise, preferably reduced fat

  • 1 tbsp (15 ml) chopped fresh parsley
  • ½ red or green pepper, seeds removed and chopped
  • ½ onion, finely chopped
  • 1 hard-boiled egg, peeled and chopped (optional)

Instructions :

1. Place potatoes and ½ tsp of the salt in a pot with water. Bring to the boil and cook until tender. Allow to
cool, peel and cut in cubes.
2. Mix mustard, the rest of the salt, lemon juice, pepper, mayonnaise, yoghurt and parsley.
3. Mix sauce into potatoes with red pepper and onion.
4. Sprinkle with egg and serve as a side dish.

Cook's note :

If fresh chives are available, add 2 tbsp chopped chives to the sauce.
