Usually potato salad is made with mayonnaise, which is high in fat and loaded with calories. However, some recipes do not use mayonnaise and employ healthier options such as fromage frais, olive oil and vinegar, yoghurt or soured cream.

Potato salad is easy to prepare. The main problem may be either over-cooking or under-cooking the potatoes. Over-cooked potatoes will make the salad mushy, as the potatoes will disintegrate and fall apart, whilst uncooked potatoes will leave the potatoes hard and inedible.

The rest of the preparation involves chopping up vegetables and herbs and preparing the dressing. The majority of our potato salad recipes can be served both warm and freshly made, or they should be refrigerated and allowed to cool before serving cold.

Take a look at our selection of potato salads and choose the ones that best suit your tastes and preferences. If you are feeling particularly adventurous, why not try some recipes that you would not usually opt for and broaden your repertoire of foods?
