Follow The Directions

01

Step

In a large pot, place the cubed potatoes and cover with salted water. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until the potatoes are tender but still firm, about 15 minutes. Drain the potatoes thoroughly and refrigerate until completely cooled. (Approximately 30 minutes - 1 hour)

02

Step

While the potatoes are cooking, place the eggs in a saucepan in a single layer and cover with water by 1 inch. Cover the saucepan, bring to a boil, then remove from heat and let the eggs stand in the hot water for 15 minutes. Remove the eggs from the hot water, cool under cold running water, and peel. Chop the cooled eggs and set aside.

03

Step

Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add the elbow macaroni and cook according to package directions, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 8 minutes. Drain the macaroni in a colander and rinse with cold water to stop the cooking process.

04

Step

In a medium bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, sherry vinegar, curry powder, celery seed, salt, and freshly ground black pepper until smooth and well combined. Set the dressing aside.

05

Step

In a large bowl, combine the cooled potatoes, chopped eggs, macaroni, grated carrots, finely chopped onion, and cooked peas. Carefully stir in the dressing until all ingredients are evenly coated. Cover the bowl tightly and refrigerate for at least 8 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to meld.

For an extra layer of flavor, try adding a pinch of smoked paprika to the dressing.
If you prefer a tangier salad, increase the amount of sherry vinegar to taste.
Make sure the potatoes are completely cool before mixing the salad to prevent the mayonnaise from melting.
Feel free to adjust the amount of curry powder to your preference. Start with the recommended amount and add more to taste.
This salad is best served cold, so plan accordingly.

    The curry powder adds such a unique and delicious flavor. I would never have thought to add that to potato salad!

    I substituted Greek yogurt for half the mayo and it was still super creamy and tasty, but a bit healthier.
