Sourcream Potato Salad with Bacon and Spring Onion


  Back from 3-week-vacation in Mexico.  I'd like to share how I got rid of a large amount of potatoes before the trip.  Potato salad sounds like a no-brainer idea but there's a little twist than the usual; with sour cream!!  Sour cream gives creamier taste compared to the regular potato salad with mayonnaise.  To confess, it was my first tryout with sour cream and I was a bit sceptic, but it turned out to be a great hit.  I just love this part of cooking; trying new combination of very basic ingredients and discovering a new taste!  Please try this recipe, you'll love it:)   

Ingredients (serves 4)
5 large potatoes
100g/3.5oz bacon
2/3 cup sour cream
1/4 cup chopped spring onion
salt to taste
1 tbsp. mayonnaise
1/2 tsp. ground white pepper

Directions
1. Boil potatoes with the skin.  When cooled, peel the potatoes and dice. 
2. Fry bacon in a skillet until crispy.
3. Combine all the ingredients in a large bowl and serve.
