Ingredients needed 🛒4 servings

  • 1kg potatoes
  • 1 cucumber
  • 1 stalk celery
  • 75g bacon
  • Butter (appropriate amount)
  • 20g sugar
  • Whipping cream (appropriate amount)
  • Pollock roe (appropriate amount)
  • Mayonnaise (appropriate amount)
  • A pinch of salt

Recipe 🍳

  1. To cook the potatoes quickly, slice them into moderate thickness and boil in water.
  2. Halve the cucumber, remove the seeds with a spoon or knife, then julienne. Salt the strips and let them sit for 10 minutes, then squeeze out excess water firmly.
  3. Use a peeler or knife to remove the tough outer fibers of the celery, then finely dice to maintain its crunchy texture.
  4. Chop the bacon into small pieces and fry in a pan without oil until crispy, then drain the excess fat and set aside.
  5. Drain the cooked potatoes, then while they are still hot, add butter and 20g sugar to the pan and mash with a whisk until combined.
  6. Once the butter melts, pour in the whipping cream, adjusting the consistency until the potatoes are moist and smooth.
  7. When the potato mixture has cooled slightly, add the prepared cucumber and celery, mix evenly, then chill in the refrigerator.
  8. Mix the pollock roe and mayonnaise in a 1:1 or 2:1 ratio to make the pollock roe mayo sauce.
  9. Serve the chilled potato salad in a bowl, top with the pollock roe mayo sauce and fried bacon, and enjoy.
  1. Slice and boil the potatoes; prepare the cucumber and celery by salting or dicing.
  2. Mash the hot boiled potatoes with butter, sugar, and whipping cream until smooth.
  3. Mix the vegetables into the cooled potato mixture, then serve with pollock roe mayo sauce and bacon.

Cooking tips 💡

  • Removing the cucumber seeds prevents moisture from seeping out over time, so the salad stays fresh longer.
  • Peeling the tough outer fibers of the celery with a peeler gives you a much smoother, crunchier texture.
  • Add the butter and sugar while the potatoes are hot so they melt in smoothly without separating.
