Japanese Potatoe Salad






Pardon me...the photo I posted is from the cookbook. I did not take any photos when I present the food item to my SF family. Its a Passion Night event - Soccer Craze ( organise by E+D )...haha you know who you are. That day is a super rush day for me. So sorry, no photos but the look & taste of it...same as picture lah...dun believe ask my family members:)) so here goes the secret:-




Japanese Potatoe Salad - Serves 8




INGREDIENTS:

Russet Potatoes 1 kg ( around 5 potatoes )

Japanese Rice Wine Vinegar 4 tsp ( you can replace with apple cider vinegar )

Olive Oil 2 tsp

Salt 1 tsp

Japanese Cucumber 1/2 ( thinly sliced in strips )

Carrot 1/2 ( thinly sliced in strips )

Brown/White Onion 1/2 ( finely diced )

Mayonnaise 8 tbsp



METHOD:
  • Halved the potatoes lengthways, steam over boiling water till tender for 20 mins or more when needed. ( Check to see if the potatoes are done by poking all with a chopstick/ fork or knife ).
