Ingredients
- 5 potatoes
- 2 tablespoons vinegar
- 1/2 teaspoon white sugar
- salt and ground black pepper to taste
- 1 onion, finely chopped
- 2 tablespoons pickled gherkins, chopped
- 1/4 cup creamy salad dressing (such as Miracle Whip®)
- 4 hard-boiled eggs, cut into wedges, divided
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley, or as desired
Instructions
1
Start by submerging potatoes into a substantial container filled with salted water; then, bring the mixture to a rolling boil. Gradually decrease the heat to a moderate level and let it simmer until the potatoes are soft, taking around 20 minutes; next, drain the water and rinse the potatoes with cold liquid to lower their temperature. Remove the outer layers of the potatoes and slice them into thin pieces.

In a large bowl, combine vinegar, sugar, salt, and pepper in a well-blended mixture; then, add the sliced potatoes, chopped onion, and diced gherkin to the bowl. Mix the salad dressing into the potato mixture thoroughly. Fold 3/4 of the egg wedges into the potato mixture, leaving the remaining egg wedges to be used as a garnish. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate it for 1 hour before serving.
