This Creamy Potato and Apple Salad is a delightful combination of textures and flavors, perfect for any occasion.
Boil the potatoes in salted water until tender, about 10-15 minutes.
Ensure the potatoes are evenly sized for consistent cooking.
Drain and let the potatoes cool, then cut them into halves.
Cut the potatoes while slightly warm for easier handling.
In a large salad bowl, combine the potatoes, celery, onion, and apples.
Mix gently to avoid breaking the potatoes.
In a separate bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, olive oil, vinegar, lemon juice, mustard, and sugar.
Taste the dressing and adjust seasoning if needed.
Pour the dressing over the salad and toss to coat evenly.
Ensure all ingredients are well coated with the dressing.
Chill the salad for at least 1 hour before serving.
Chilling allows the flavors to meld together beautifully.
Sprinkle with fresh chives before serving.
Add a sprig of parsley for an extra touch of color.
