What do you put/use for potato salad?

I learned a Turkish potato salad recipe from a woman from Turkey. It is to die for. No mayo! And would be vegan. Easy too

Boil whole potatoes skin on.
Once tender drain, put back on stove in the warm pan and sizzle the water out and let them dry and cool some that way after turning heat off.

Take off the skins once able to handle.
You want the taters warm when mixing the salad so don’t cool to room temp or refrigerate.

Once skinned. Roughly chop the taters in a bowl. Add olive oil and lemon juice, kosher salt and fresh cracked pepper. Stir to combine while taters are still warm. Sit aside

Use red, yellow and orange peppers. Chop to about one inch. A bunch of cilantro - leaves only no stems. Add this to the tater mixture and stir again.

Taste. May need more “dressing” at this time which is simply olive oil, lemon juice and S&P.

Chill. Enjoy


This is my go to potluck salad now.
Always well received.
If you are not into cilantro, parsley is a substitute. There are many recipes on the net that might have more and different ingredients. Some call for sumac which is probably the most authentic.
