Japanese Potato Salad {Speedy Recipe}

Introducing Spatula, Spoon and Saturday Speedy Recipe. Because I kinda have less time but I am trying to meet the one-new-blog-post a week commitment. So I will be brief. The recipe will be fairly quick and to the point. If you are new to cooking, please feel free to leave questions below.

Ingredients – Salad

• 3 potatoes, peeled and cut into cubes
• 1 medium carrot, peeled and grated
• 1 cucumber, thinly sliced
• 1 boiled egg

Ingredients – Dressing

• 3 tbsp Japanese mayonaise
• 1 tbsp rice vinegar
• Salt & pepper to taste

Steps

1.   Boil potatoes in salted water until cooked. Drain. Mash lightly.
2.   While still hot, add grated carrot. The residual heat should be enough to semi-cook the carrot
3.   Toss through mayo, rice, salt and pepper. Taste and season again if necessary.
4.   Stir through boiled egg and cucumber.

Serve with

1. Any Japanese-inspired bento
2. Barbecued chicken wings (teriyaki glaze)
