Ingredients- 4 medium potatoes
- 0.5 Tbsp salt
- 6 hard-boiled eggs
- 1/4 carrot
- 1/2 small onion
- 5 dill pickles (or your preferred pickles)
- 5 Tbsp mayonnaise
- 2 Tbsp mustard
- 1 Tbsp honey
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
Slice the potatoes into large pieces to reduce cooking time. Wash them thoroughly, keeping the skin on if you prefer, and prepare for boiling.
Step 2
Place the sliced potatoes in a pot and add 0.5 Tbsp of salt. Boiling the potatoes with salt allows them to absorb flavor, making them more delicious.
Step 3
Pour enough water to just cover the potatoes. Boil over medium heat for 10-15 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender enough to be easily pierced with a fork.
Step 4
Finely mince 1/2 small onion. Finely chopped onion adds a delightful crunch and enhances the overall flavor of the sandwich filling.
Step 5
Finely mince 1/4 carrot, similar to the onion. Carrots not only add a beautiful color to the sandwich but are also packed with nutrients.
Step 6
Prepare 6 hard-boiled eggs. These will be the creamy base of our sandwich filling.
Step 7
Finely chop 5 dill pickles. (If you don’t have pickles, you can omit them, but they add a wonderful tangy and slightly sweet flavor that elevates the sandwich.)
Step 8
In a bowl, combine the minced onion, carrot, chopped pickles, and hard-boiled eggs. Mash the eggs with a fork or masher as you mix them with the other ingredients. This creates the base for your filling.
Step 9
Drain the boiled potatoes completely. It’s best to mash them while they are still warm, as they will yield a smoother texture. Transfer the mashed potatoes to a large bowl.
Step 10
Add the egg and vegetable mixture from the previous step to the warm mashed potatoes. Mix everything together thoroughly. Mixing while the potatoes are warm helps all the ingredients meld together beautifully.
Step 11
The addition of carrots gives the sandwich filling a lovely vibrant color! The crisp texture of the carrots as you bite into the sandwich will further enhance its taste.
Step 12
Add 1 Tbsp of honey for a touch of sweetness. You can substitute with sugar if preferred.
Step 13
Generously add 5 Tbsp of mayonnaise to ensure a creamy and rich filling.
Step 14
Stir in 2 Tbsp of mustard sauce for an added layer of flavor. Mix everything well to create a creamy potato salad filling.
Step 15
Prepare your bread of choice, such as slider buns or sliced bread. Slice them in half horizontally and generously stuff the insides with the prepared potato salad filling.
Step 16
Don’t be shy with the filling! Pack it in generously to ensure a satisfying and hearty sandwich.
Step 17
Your delicious homemade potato sandwich is ready! Enjoy this visually appealing and incredibly tasty sandwich. (Tip: A sprinkle of parsley flakes will make it look even more appetizing. Using slightly firmer rolls, like Costco dinner rolls, is great as they can hold a generous amount of filling without falling apart.)
