This potato salad has ham and eggs in the recipe but I decided to do a vegetarian one and left them out. Other vegetables you can use are peas, corn and cauliflower. Boil these vegetables first in salted water. If you want to make it without mayonnaise (fully vegetarian) you can use sour cream or plain yogurt in place of the regular mayonnaise.
4 medium size potatoes, boiled and cut into squares
1 carrot, boiled and cut into cubes
1 japanese cucumber, sliced thinly and salted in a bowl
I cup good quality ham, cut into small cubes
2 tablespoons mayonnaise (I use Best Foods brand)
1 medium yellow onion, sliced very thinly
1 teaspoon Honey mustard
Salt and pepper
2 eggs, hardboiled, optional
Boil potato and carrot. Strain water. Put in a bowl. Add salt, pepper (to taste, quarter tsp first). Then add onion and mustard. Mix. Then add the cucumber and ham and mayonnaise. Mix well. Taste and add more seaoning if required. If you like, slice the egg and garnish on top but you can leave it out too. Put in fridge until ready to eat.
