Potato Salad Roll
November 16th 2009 10:42
It's a sign of the times when I put an eighties recipe on my vintage food blog. There is now nearly a 30 year gap since flouro t-shirts, WHAM and some pretty rad food was popular. I found this one in my grandmother's 'Eating in the 80s' cookbook and I gotta say I picked the perfect day for it. With temperatures around the mid-30s it was easy to pre-prepare and I didn't have to slave over a hot stove, just serve it up.
Ingredients
4 cups cooked mashed potatoes (without liquid)
1 cup finely sliced celery
1/2 C finely chopped pickled cucumbers
2 level tspns grated onion
2 tblspns mayonnaise
1 tspn lemon juice
1 level tspn salt
1/2 level tspn pepper
1/4 C chopped parsley or chives
4 hard cooked eggs
Method
1. Combine first 8 ingredients
2. Sprinkle chopped parsley or chives over large sheet of greased greaseproof paper.
3. Spread potato mixture over paper into a 40cm x 25 cm rectangle.
4. Place hard-cooked eggs along shorter side of potato. Using paper as a lever, roll potato around eggs like a Swiss roll, keeping paper to outside.
5. Chill well, cut into thick slices. Serve with salad or cold meats.
Serves 6.
