Ingredients
- 6 medium-sized red potatoes
- 1 celery stalk (diced)
- ¼ cup fresh parsley
- ¼ cup green onions (diced)
- ¼ cup bacon bits
- 3 tablespoons cannabis oil (olive is preferred)
- 2 teaspoons salt
- 1 ½ teaspoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- ½ teaspoon crushed garlic
- Pinch of cayenne pepper
Tools
- Paring Knife
- Large pot
- Strainer
- Spoon
- Small bowl
- Whisk
- Large bowl
Instructions
-
Scrub all of the potatoes until they are clean and then remove any pits or black spots to avoid a gritty texture.
-
Slice the potatoes into ¼ inch disks, then slice the circles into quarters to create the perfect bite-sized pieces.
Fill a large pot approximately halfway full of water, and add the potato bits in.
Bring the water to a rolling boil and allow the potatoes to cook for between 7 to10 minutes, or until the potatoes are cooked, but still firm. This is important to watch if you want a potato salad that doesn’t turn to paste, so be sure to keep a close eye on them as they cook.
Once the potatoes are cooked, drain the water from the pot and then dump the steaming hot bits into a large mixing bowl.
Toss the potatoes with the parsley, celery, onions, and bacon bits, ensuring that they are evenly combined and thoroughly coated before moving onto the next step.
In a smaller bowl, whisk together the salt, cayenne pepper, mustard, garlic, lemon juice, and cannabis oil.
Drizzle the freshly made dressing over the potato chunks and then gently fold it into the mix.
Leave the potato salad to cool in the fridge for at least 2 hours before serving, as this allows the flavors to leech into the potato bits, resulting in a delicious marinade of spices and goodness that will go great with any meal.
How to store this potato salad
This potato salad recipe has just enough for natural preservatives, thanks to the powerful lemon juice, that can last for up to 5 days if it is stored in an airtight container and refrigerated. However, the life of the dish can be quickly shortened through warmth, so it’s best to only take out what you need for each meal, leaving the rest in a cool environment that will keep it fresh and delicious.
