uPamela’s remixed potato salad

Woolworths is committed to sustainability via our good business journey. Seasonal (and other) products might not always be in stock.

Ingredients

1 head garlic
½ cup tangy mayonnaise
sea salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
1 T lemon juice
700 g baby potatoes, boiled
½ cup crème fraîche
30 g chives, finely chopped
30 g small gherkins, finely chopped
75 g scarlet spring onions
200 g micro turnips, halved
100 g smoked pancetta, fried

Cooking Instructions

1. To make the garlic aïoli, roast the garlic for 190°C for 30 minutes. Squeeze the cloves into the mayonnaise and season with a pinch of salt and lemon juice.

2. Cut the potatoes into small cubes and mix with the crème fraîche and garlic aïoli until the potatoes are coated. Add the chives and gherkins and fold through. Sprinkle with the spring onions, halved turnips and pancetta. Season to taste.

Cook's note: There’s something special about everyone’s mom’s or gran’s potato salad, and who’s responsible for making it will always be asked when there’s a special ceremony or gathering. I like to elevate it with crème fraîche, garlic, aïoli and fresh chives.
