A wonderfully crunchy salad. Ingredients:
1 lb red new potato |
1 (10 ounce) package frozen baby peas, thawed and drained |
1 cup cauliflower, chopped small |
1 cup celery, chopped small |
1 cup cashew nuts, chopped small |
1/4 cup chopped green onion, white part only |
1/4 cup chopped red onion |
lettuce leaf |
1/2 cup sour cream |
1 cup commercial ranch salad dressing |
1/2 teaspoon garlic salt |
1 teaspoon salt |
1/2 teaspoon fresh ground pepper |
Directions:
1. Place potatoes in a heavy saucepan (large enough to accomodate the potatoes without crowding). 2. Add water to cover and 1 teaspoon salt per quart of water. 3. Cover partially and bring to a boil; cook about 20-25 minutes or until tender when pierced. 4. Drain potaotes in a collander and return them to the warm cooking pan briefly, tossing them over low heat to dry them. 5. When cool enough to handle, peel and cut into 1/4 inch cubes. 6. Place potato cubes in a large bowl; add in the peas, cauliflower, celery, cashews, green onions, and red onion; toss gently to mix. 7. To make the dressing: in a small mixing bowl, stir together the dressing ingredients. 8. Pour dressing over the potato salad; toss gently but thoroughly. 9. Cover w/ plastic wrap and refrigerate for 4 hours or up to 24 hours. 10. To serve: pile on a platter lined with lettuce leaves. |
