How To Make Curried Potato Salad

To make Curried Potato Salad you can start with either baby yellow (Yukon Gold) potatoes or red potatoes. Boil them in salted water until tender. It’s very important to not forget to salt the water. You want to add at least 2 teaspoons of salt to the water so that your potatoes taste seasoned rather than plain and boring.

Cut the potatoes into quarters and sprinkle with 1 1/2 tablespoons of white wine vinegar while still warm. This is going to add a little tang and really perk up the flavor. You could use apple cider vinegar or even rice vinegar if you don’t have white wine vinegar.

Make the creamy dressing which is a simple mixture of mayonnaise, sour cream, curry powder, and sugar. Stir it into the potatoes. Add the sliced red onion and chopped fresh cilantro. You want to refrigerate this Curried Potato Salad for at least 1 hour before serving to let the flavors blend.
