A creamy and tangy Southern potato salad made with tender potatoes, hard-boiled eggs, and a mayonnaise-based dressing, perfect for any gathering.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 medium Yukon Gold or red potatoes
  • 2 hard-boiled eggs
  • 1 cup mayonnaise
  • 1/4 cup pickle relish
  • 1 tablespoon mustard
  • Salt, to taste
  • Black pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Wash and cut potatoes into even chunks and place in a pot covered with cold, salted water.
  2. Bring to a boil and simmer until tender, about 10 to 15 minutes.
  3. Drain potatoes and let cool to warm or room temperature.
  4. Peel and chop hard-boiled eggs into bite-sized pieces.
  5. In a large bowl, combine cooled potatoes, chopped eggs, mayonnaise, pickle relish, mustard, salt, and pepper.
  6. Gently fold everything until well combined.
  7. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving.

Notes

For a tangier salad, swap half the mayonnaise for Greek yogurt. Use sweet relish for a milder flavor or dill relish for a sharper taste. Adjust seasoning before chilling.
