Hot Potato Salad

Description

Who says potato salad can only be cold?

Ingredients

Ingredients

  • 7 cups boiled red potatoes, skins on
  • 2 tablespoons oil
  • 1 medium onion
  • ¼ teaspoon pepper
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 3 tablespoons sugar
  • 6 tablespoons vinegar
  • ½ cup cream
Directions

Directions

Boil potatoes in skins until tender. Cool slightly and cut into bite-sized pieces. Heat the oil, and add the chopped onion and cook until soft and lightly browned. Add potatoes, pepper, salt, sugar and vinegar. Simmer for five minutes on low. Season to taste. Add cream and simmer until ready to serve. This reheats well and tastes better the longer it simmers. For serving purposes, place in a preheated slow cooker on low to keep warm.
