Ingredients
  

  • 800 g Potatoes 4 large potatoes, scrubbed
  • ½ Chicken Stock Cube
  • 45 ml Boiling Water 3 tbsp / 1.5 oz
  • 25 g Mayonnaise 1 heaped tbsp / 0.9 oz
  • 2.5 g Mustard ½ tsp / 0.08 oz
  • 15 ml Grape Vinegar 1 tbsp / 0.5 oz
  • 30 ml Olive Oil 2 tbsp / 1 oz
  • 1 Medium Onion finely chopped (about 100 g / ¾ cup / 3.5 oz)
  • ½ tsp Salt
  • Freshly Ground Black Pepper to taste

Instructions
 

  • Place the potatoes in a pot and cover with water. Boil over low heat for 20–30 minutes, until soft. Test with a fork—if it pierces easily, they’re ready.

  • Drain the water and let the potatoes cool just enough to handle. While still warm, peel and slice them.
  • Dissolve the chicken stock cube in boiling water and pour over the sliced potatoes in a bowl.
  • Finely dice the onion using a sharp knife on a cutting board and add to the potatoes.
  • Add mayonnaise, mustard, vinegar and olive oil.
  • Gently toss the ingredients to coat the potatoes without breaking them too much.
  • Season with salt, black pepper, and a touch of Aromat if desired.
  • Transfer into a serving dish. Serve warm.
