Potato Salad
About 7 to 10 Average size Potatoes unpeeled or peeled cut into bite-sized pieces, 1 small onion finely chopped, 1 small green capsicum chopped, 2-3 celery sticks finely chopped, 1/4 cup finely chopped parsley.
DRESSING: 3/4 cup mayonnaise (Edmonds Egg Mayo is very nice for this, Best brand is nice also, or nice creamy homemade), 1-2 tablespoons vinegar or lemon juice, 2 tablespoons sour cream.
Cook potato in a large pan of boiling water for 5 minutes or until just tender (a sharp pointed knife just pierces), drain and cool completely. Combine the onion, capsicum, celery and parsley with the cooled potato in a large salad bowl. Mix together mayonnaise, vinegar and sour cream, season with salt and pepper. Pour about two thirds of dressing over salad and toss gently to combine without breaking the potato, if well coated then keep remainder in fridge for future use, if still a little light add remainder to taste or liking. Garnish with a little chopped parsley.
With Christmas approaching this is a goody to bump up for some great ideas for the holiday season.

Hot potato salad!! 500gs potatos French Onion soup mix 250mls cream
Peel or leave skins on, cube into similar sized cubes, cook in microwave on high in dish wrapped in plastic wrap, cut a few air holes. Cook until tender, in oven 180o mix cream and mix in french onion soup mix. Let this come to the boil (gets thick) and has a crust on it. Mix in potatos and heat. This is an easy dish to do at the last minute up to the cream going in the oven, will take about 20mins. It is delicious, naughty and everyone loves it, a Xmas favourite.

Had our first new potatoes out of the vegetable garden yesterday. "Swift" are the ones we had and I just steamed them with big bunches of mint and drizzled with melted butter Mmmmm. We also have Jersey Benne ready for Christmas day and a red "Desiree" for a bit later on.

Here's one of our favs, Peel and chop as many spuds as desired into roughly one inch cubes, par cook in microwave for 6-7 mins with no water, then add 3-4 cloves of crushed garlic (more if you adore garlic!), then add 2 teaspoons tabasco sauce and enough olive oil to coat spuds. Place on a oiled baking tray or roasting dish and cook at 200 C untill crispy and golden, usually around 30 mins. Great with anything!

Sounds exciting. Do you mix the garlic, tabasco & oil & then coat spuds. The tabasco would give it some zing I'm picking. Green or red?

Its yummy! i just throw everything in with the spuds and mix, i use red tabasco but any good hot sauce would do it!

another good tip is not to peel and cut the potato before boiling it. Instead it should be boiled in their skins to prevent potato absorbing water
