The basic ingredients of a classic potato salad are boiled potatoes, hard-boiled eggs, and a mayonnaise-mustard dressing. The potatoes are typically boiled with the skin on and cut into small pieces unpeeled. Celery stalks, onions, green onions, and fresh herbs add additional flavor. The salad is very filling, tender, and has a pleasant creamy texture. It can be served as a standalone appetizer or as a side dish with meat dishes.

• 1.3 kg red potatoes
• 6 large eggs
• 1 cup mayonnaise
• 2 tbsp mustard
• 2 stalks celery, chopped

• Meanwhile, place the eggs in a large saucepan and cover with water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for about 10 minutes. Drain and run the eggs under cold water to cool. Peel and slice.
