South African Potato Salad Recipe

Creamy South African Potato Salad (with a Sweet Twist)

Ingredients:

• 10 hard-boiled eggs

• 12 medium potatoes (white, skin-on)

• 1 bunch spring onions, finely sliced

• 1 tin (approx. 400g) sweetened condensed milk

• 1½ cups mayonnaise

• Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish – optional)

Method:

1. Pop the eggs into a pot of cold water and bring to a boil. Let them cook for about 10 minutes, then remove and set aside to cool.

2. In the same water, boil the unpeeled potatoes until they’re just tender — firm enough to hold their shape but soft enough to cut easily. Drain and leave to cool.

3. Once cooled, peel and chop the eggs, then place them into a large mixing or serving bowl.

4. Add your sliced spring onions to the eggs.

5. Peel and cube the cooled potatoes, then mix them in.

6. Gently fold in the condensed milk and mayonnaise until everything is well coated.

7. Sprinkle parsley on top if you’re feeling fancy.

8. Refrigerate until chilled — trust us, it tastes best cold!

🇿🇦 A true nostalgic favourite, this salad’s a must for any braai or summer table. Sweet, creamy, and full of love.
