Japanese Potato Salad 马铃薯沙拉
After my Perfect Potato Soup, I still have two potatoes lying on my pantry. Not knowing what to do with them, I was glad when I saw Aunty Young’s Japanese Potato Salad a few days ago. It so happens that this is one of my favourite type of salad too. Without second thoughts and since I have most of the ingredients on hand, I quickly made this simple salad. Hopefully you’ll try this at home. This Japanese potato salad is the most tasty and easy to make and I’m sure your family will enjoy it. You can even made this salad into sandwiches to bring to a picnic.
