Potato salad

From the kitchen of a friend

10 small new potatoes
1 small onion (peeled, thinly sliced)
1/2 cup Italian salad dressing (your choice)
1 cucumber (thinly sliced)
1/2 carrot (peeled, thinly sliced)
1 tbsp dried dill
Chopped fresh parsley (garnish)

Scrub and rinse potatoes and cook in lightly salted boiling water. When almost done, add carrot. Cook until just tender and slice potatoes (skins can be removed, but it is OK to leave them on).

Place onion slices in water to remove strong taste and smell for 3 minutes. Drain and remove excess moisture

Cover and refrigerate until cool.

Next, in a mixing bowl, arrange potatoes and carrots sprinkle with onion slices and add sliced cucumber. Sprinkle salad with dry dill. Set aside.

Just before serving, add Italian dressing to the salad. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley and serve.
