Instructions

  1. Boil the potatoes in their skins and let them cool.
  2. Peel the potatoes and, depending on the size, cut them in half and cut into slices in a bowl. Then add the diced pickles and the onion. Add the tomato and pickles in small slices, season with salt and pepper.
  3. Put the crème fraîche in a sealable container, e.g. for salad dressing, and add about half of the cucumber broth. Close the container and shake well so that there is a homogeneous mass. Add to the potatoes and mix well. Don`t worry if it looks liquid, the potatoes will still absorb some of the liquid.
  4. Chill the salad for about 2-3 hours and let it steep, mix again before serving.
  5. Goes well with fish, schnitzels, sausages or for grilling.
  6. Tip:
  7. You can leave out tomatoes and cucumber, but the salad tastes very fresh for grilling.
  8. You can cook the potatoes the day before.
