This classic Red Potato Salad combines celery, hard-boiled eggs, red onion, and fresh dill and chives in a quick and easy three-ingredient creamy dressing.

📝 Ingredients

  • 2 1/2 lbs red potatoes
  • 2 teaspoons salt
  • 4 large eggs
  • 2 ribs celery chopped
  • 1/4 cup finely chopped red onion
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh dill
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh chives
  • salt to taste
  • freshly ground black pepper
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard

👨‍🍳 Instructions

  1. 1Place the red potatoes in a large pot and fill it with cold water. Add the salt and bring the pot to a boil. Reduce to a simmer and cook just until the potatoes are fork tender. It will take 10-20 minutes, depending on their size. Plunge the potatoes into an ice bath to stop the cooking process.
  2. 2Add a steamer basket to a large saucepan. Fill it with enough water to reach just below the bottom of the steamer basket. Bring it to a boil and carefully place the eggs in the steamer basket using a long-handled slotted spoon or tongs. Cover the pot and steam for 15 minutes. Carefully plunge the eggs into an ice bath.
  3. 3Mix the mayo, sour cream, and Dijon mustard in a small bowl.
  4. 4Cut the potatoes into bite-sized pieces and peel and chop the eggs. Add the potatoes, eggs, celery, red onion, dill, and chives to a large bowl.
  5. 5Pour the dressing over the top and toss to coat. Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste.
