Step by step recipe

Stage 1 - 15 min.

Prepare 2 ²⁄₃ cups tomato and, after cutting into small pieces, salt and leave to wait in a sieve to draw out some of the juice.

Stage 2 - 30 min.

Boil 5 cups potatoes, peel and cut in half lengthways, then into small pieces.

Stage 3 - 20 min.

Slice 12 hard-boiled eggs when cooled.

Cut 1 ¹⁄₃ cup cervelas into small dices.

Stage 4 - 5 min.

Slice ½ cup gherkins in vinegar.

Stage 5 - 3 min.

Roughly chop the parsley.

Stage 6 - 3 min.

Put all the ingredients into a salad bowl.

Stage 7 - 3 min.

Remarks

You can replace the cervelas with another kind of meat or sausage of your choice, but still cut into small dice. For a vegetarian version, just leave it out.

You can replace the mayonnaise with a rémoulade dressing if you prefer. As for all salad recipes, this can be varied to suit your taste (a little more of this or a little less of that).

Keeping: A day or 2 in the fridge if the bowl is covered with plastic film .

This has to be my very best favorite way to prepare potato salad. However, jh, I never thought to add cervelas, or any other kind of meat besides ham. Thanks for the clue and sharing...

Hope all is well with you and yours,
