Ingredients
 

  • 3 unpeeled Carisma potatoes
  • Water, as needed
  • Salt, to taste
  • Mayonnaise, as needed
Optional Ingredients
  • 1 chopped green onion (spring onion)
  • 1 teaspoon chopped fresh parsley
  • 1/2 teaspoon prepared mustard
  • Black pepper, to taste

Method
 

  1. Wash and chop the potatoes into 1-inch (2.5cm) cubes without peeling them.
  2. Put them in a pot and add enough water to cover by an inch or so.
  3. Bring them to a boil then add a pinch of salt.
  4. Simmer the potatoes until tender, then drain them.
  5. Let them cool, then stir in mayonnaise.
  6. The amount you use depends how creamy you want them.
  7. Add any of the optional ingredients you want to use.

Notes

Make sure you are using sugar-free mayonnaise.
Some people like to use half mayo and half sour cream, or another kind of dressing.
If you want to add mustard to the mayo, stir it in (along with any herbs or other seasonings) before tossing the potatoes with this dressing.
