German Potato Salad

German Potato Salad

I absolutely love German potato salad! Every time I take a bite I am flooded with memories of my grandfather. This is a lightened up recipe from the one in our family cookbook and makes a smaller amount which is perfect for satisfying a craving.

Recipe adapted from Fixate

Ingredients:

2 cups chopped red potato

3 tablespoons olive oil

1 cup chopped onion

2 cloves garlic pressed

2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar

1 tablespoon Dijon mustard

2 tablespoons maple syrup

3/4 sliced green onion

4 slices chopped cooked turkey bacon

1/4 cup fresh parsley

1/2 teaspoon sea salt

1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper

Directions:

  1. Place potatoes in a large pot, cover with cold water, bring to boil. Cook 15-18 minutes until potatoes are tender. Drain and slice potatoes. Set aside.
  2. Heat oil in a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add onion and garlic. Cook for 3 minutes.
  3. Add potatoes and cook for 3-5 minutes until lightly browned.
  4. Add vinegar, mustard, maple syrup, and green onions and cook for 2 minutes so sauce can be absorbed.
  5. Transfer mixture to a bowl. Add bacon, parsley, salt, and pepper. Mix gently to combine.
  6. Serve warm or refrigerate and enjoy later.
