Austrian Potato Salad Recipe

How to make it

---

• Boil the potatoes in just enough salted water to cover until done but still firm, about 10-12 minutes.
• While they are cooking, heat the water to boiling, add the onion, and add the 1/2 Knorr cube; stir until broth forms.
• Add oil and vinegar, pepper and sugar; stir well.
• Warm through and then remove from heat. (I don't add more salt at this point because a taste test is made after combining the ingredients-- that's when to add more salt, and only if needed.)
• Drain potatoes and peel while still hot.
• Slice thickly straight into your serving bowl.
• Stir marinade up again. Pour the still-warm marinade over the still-warm potatoes.
• Stir to combine (may appear like too much dressing- don't worry!), then cover and let stand at least 10 minutes.
• Stir again and taste to see if more salt is needed. By now the marinade should have become rather creamy in texture and the potatoes should have absorbed most of it into themselves.
• Serve warm or at room temperature with the chives sprinkled on top.
• I say this serves 4 as a side dish --but frankly, my hubby and I eat it as a main dish, when it serves 2!
• Recipe may easily be doubled or even tripled. Enjoy!
