Easy Potato Salad


Perfect for taking to a BBQ, this potato salad is easy and quick to whip up in the kitchen.

Ingredients:
1kg Potatoes, peeled and cubed in 2cm
mayonnaise (approx 1/4 - 1/2 cup)
1 small lemon, juiced
1 small red onion cut finely
four slices of ham chopped into squares
3 spring onions, chopped finely
some fresh basil leaves, finely shredded

Method:
1. Place the potatoes in a saucepan and bring to the boil, cooking until done.  Soft but still able to hold their cube shape.
2.  Drain and transfer to a bowl.
3. Add the remaining ingredients, adding the mayo slowly until there is just enough (nothing worse than having too much mayo and you may even use less than this recipe outlines)
4. Season with salt and pepper. Serve

Delicious!  Even served semi warm this salad is lovely.

Options:
Add things like pineapple, left over chicken or salami for a twist.
