Salada di Batata

(Potato salad)


This potato salad is very simple, it has very few ingredients beyond potatoes and mayo. Mike, the only one that evening who ate potato salad, liked it though he said he preferred the African-American version I made a few months ago.

The original recipe did not specify what type of potatoes to use, so I used red potatoes as that's what Mike wanted. I also used low-fat mayo to save on the calories. I halved the original recipe as Mike would be the only one eating it. The version below is enough for 4 servings as a side dish.
