Potato Salad With Garlic Mayonnaise And Chives Recipes

POTATO SALAD WITH CHIVES

Steps:

• Place the potatoes into a pan, and fill with just enough water to cover. Bring to a boil, then simmer over low heat until tender, about 10 minutes. Drain, and cool under cold running water.
• In a large bowl, stir together the sour cream, mayonnaise, and 1/2 cup of chives. When the potatoes have cooled, stir them into this mixture. Season with salt and pepper. Garnish with remaining chives.

GARLIC AIOLI POTATO SALAD

Steps:

• Place 2 eggs in a small pot with water to cover. Bring to a boil over high heat; immediately remove from heat and cover for 8 minutes. Transfer eggs to a bowl of ice water to cool. Peel and dice small.
• Meanwhile, combine grated garlic, salt and lemon juice in a blender, and pulse a few times to combine. Pulse in egg yolk. With motor running, slowly drizzle in olive oil until completely incorporated and mayonnaise is thick. Scrape into a bowl and fold in sour cream. Fold in celery and red onion.
• Place whole unpeeled potatoes in a large pot with enough salted water to cover by 1 inch. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat and cook until potatoes are just tender, 15 to 25 minutes depending upon size. Drain and cut potatoes into 1 1/2-inch chunks as soon as you can handle them.
• Transfer hot potatoes to a large bowl and toss with diced boiled eggs and 2/3 of the dressing. Let cool to room temperature, or refrigerate until ready to use. Just before serving, toss with some of the remaining dressing to taste (if desired). Season with black pepper and add more salt if necessary. Sprinkle with chives.

ROASTED POTATO AND GARLIC SALAD

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Place 1/2 cup of olive oil in a large bowl. Toss the cubed potatoes in the oil until coated, and then spread them evenly on a baking sheet.
• Pass the red peppers through the bowl of oil, making sure they are evenly coated. Place on a separate baking sheet.
• Cut about 1/2 inch off the tops of the garlic and drizzle with the remaining oil from the bowl. Place on the baking sheet with the red peppers. Sprinkle the potatoes, peppers and garlic with salt and pepper, and then place both sheets in the oven for about 20 minutes.
• Check the potatoes: they should be soft, brown and crispy. If not, return them to the oven for an additional 10 minutes or until they are done. The peppers and garlic will take longer, and are done when the skins on the peppers are black and garlic is dark brown (no more than 40 minutes total).
• Once everything has been roasted, place the potatoes in a large bowl and seal the peppers in a plastic bag to let them steam for 10 minutes. (This will loosen their skins.)
• Take the peppers out of the bag, remove their skins and seeds and chop them up. Add to the bowl with the potatoes and stir to mix.
• Turn the garlic heads upside down and squeeze the softened garlic past into a separate, small bowl. Mix in the balsamic vinegar, 1/3 cup olive oil and oregano until smooth. Pour the dressing onto the potatoes and peppers and toss to coat. Season to taste with additional salt and pepper. Best when served warm or at room temperature. To prepare in advance for an occasion, refrigerate and then reheat in the microwave just until warmed through.

GARLIC POTATO SALAD WITH HOMEMADE MAYONNAISE

Steps:

• To make the garlic mayonnaise, place all ingredients except oil in blender. Blend on high until all ingredients are well blended. Add the oil in a slow steady stream. If the mayo is too thick add a few drops of lemon juice. (The extra mayo can be kept in the refrigerator for up to a week. It's great on sandwiches and in chicken salad.)
• For the salad, cook the potatoes in a pressure cooker for 10-15 minutes, depending on the size of potatoes. Boil eggs for 10 minutes. After both have cooled, peel, dice and add to bowl. Add the onions and then salt and pepper to taste. Add dill, mustard and mayo to the consistency that you like--some people like their potato salad dry, some like it very moist. Refrigerate overnight for best flavor.

CREAMY GARLIC POTATO SALAD

Steps:

• Combine mayonnaise, finely diced onion and crushed garlic cloves in container with a lid.
• Mix well and refrigerate for 2-3 hours.
• (This is so the flavour of the garlic and onion will be picked up by the mayonnaise) Wash potatoes and cube, leaving the skin on.
• Boil until tender, and skin is SLIGHTLY coming away.
• The potatoes will be slightly overcooked by potato salad measures, but this only adds to the creaminess.
• Set aside to cool.
• At the same time you can hardboil the eggs.
• Once eggs are cooled, cut in quarters, lengthways and set aside.
• Place cooled potatoes in large bowl and add the mayonnaise mixture, corn kernals and chives.
• Mix well.
• The last step is to add the eggs.
• Place them throughout the salad, being careful not to mix them in too much, as they will lose their yolk and discolour the salad.
