It is so easy to make this vegan potato salad recipe. Anyone can do it! Which is why I have given it my newbie cook stamp of approval.
We will begin by boiling the potatoes in a large pot. They take only 5 minutes to cook. Strain and rinse with cool water. Then add to a large mixing bowl.
Next, we will add the remaining ingredients: celery, red onion, and fresh dill. Prepare the creamy dressing and pour over top. Toss everything to combine.
And that’s all there is too it folks! (Told you it was easy).
You can serve this potato salad immediately, or chill in the fridge until ready to eat.
This recipe will keep for up to 5 days! Store in the fridge in an air-tight container. This also means that you can prepare this potato salad recipe in advance for an upcoming bbq, and whip it out in a flash. 🙂
The best kind of potatoes to use for potato salads are the red ones. That’s because red potatoes hold their shape well when cooked.
Red potatoes are more waxy and less starchy. They have a creamier, firm flesh, and thinner skin than starchy potatoes. All-in-all, they are perfect for making potato salads.
You can also use yellow or white potatoes for this recipe. (I’m all about using what you have on hand). However, the outcome might be a potato salad that’s a little more mushy in texture, since white and yellow potatoes have a higher starch content and soften more easily.
