My favorite potato salad-my mother's recipe. I think you will like it too. Different from any other recipes I have seen. Ingredients:
4 -5 medium potatoes |
1 small onion, diced |
1 stalk celery, diced |
2 medium lemons |
2 tablespoons cornstarch |
1 1/2 tablespoons sugar |
1 egg |
1 1/2 cups milk |
1 tablespoon mustard |
1/4 lb bacon |
Directions:
1. Peel and cut potatoes into cubes, as you would for mashed potatoes.
2. Boil until tender, able to crush with a fork.
3. Set aside potatoes, don't drain yet.
4. Cut lemons in half and ream juice removing seeds.
5. Pour juice into 2 cup measuring cup.
6. Add cornstarch, sugar, egg, milk and mustard.
7. Pour into a sauce pan and stir over medium heat. Don't allow mixture to boil. The goal is a smooth liquid that will thicken as you continue to stir mixture.
8. As mixture is thickening, fry the bacon as you would for breakfast. When done remove and cut into 1 inch or so strips.
9. Sauté onions and celery till tender.
10. Drain potatoes and pour into a large bowl. Add bacon and pour in the thicken sauce. Mix to completely covered.
11. This works well with ribs, chicken or ham. Enjoy.
