Ingredients
  

  • 2 pounds potatoes (Yukon Gold or red potatoes)
  • 3 hard-boiled eggs, chopped
  • 1/2 cup red onion, finely chopped
  • 1 cup mayonnaise
  • 2 tbsp Dijon mustard
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp ground pepper
  • fresh parsley or dill, for garnish

Instructions
 

  • Rinse and scrub the potatoes thoroughly, then slice them into uniform chunks. Place the pieces in a large saucepan filled with salted water and bring to a boil.
  • Simmer until they’re fork-tender, around 15-20 minutes, being careful not to overcook. Drain the potatoes and set them aside to cool slightly.
  • In a spacious bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, garlic powder, salt, and a dash of pepper until smooth and well blended.
  • Once the cooked potatoes have cooled enough to touch, cut them into bite-size pieces if they’re not already.
  • Fold in the chopped hard-boiled eggs, red onion, an extra pinch of garlic powder, and a touch more pepper, then stir to coat everything evenly with the dressing.
  • Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least an hour so all the flavors can come together.
  • Give the salad a quick taste and adjust the seasoning as needed.
  • Garnish with fresh parsley or dill for a bright, herbaceous touch just before serving.
