This is my final recipe entry from *Cool Cuisine* (Traditional Icelandic Cuisine) by Nanna Rognvaldardottir & I suppose it's only fitting it should feature the much-revered potato. Per the intro: Potato salad is served w/many meat dishes, esp steaks, grilled meat & sausages. There is a wide variety of recipes, but this 1 is the most popular. (This recipe begins w/the eggs & potatoes already cooked, so that time is not reflected) *Enjoy* ! Ingredients:
1 3/4 lbs potatoes (boiled tender, peeled & cubed) |
3 eggs (hard-boiled & chopped) |
2 apples (peeled, cored & chopped) |
6 -8 gherkins (chopped) |

3/4 cup mayonnaise |
3/4 cup sour cream |
1/2 teaspoon curry powder (or up to 1 tsp) |
lemon juice (optional as desired) |
salt and pepper (to taste) |
