Potatoes for salad

Bring it to a boil and then reduce heat to medium-low and allow to simmer until tender, making sure not to over-cook them or they’ll turn mushy. Drain the water and place the cooked potato slices in a colander to cool.
  • In the meanwhile, get the salad dressing ready. Chop one small onion.
  • Take ½ cup mayonnaise in a medium mixing bowl. Add Dijon mustard.

Mayo for dressing
