Chop potatoes, add salt, black pepper, and onion powder, and boil until a fork easily goes through. Leave them to cool.
Chop the onions and soak them in vinegar for about 5 minutes.
Boil the eggs, peel them, and chop them into small pieces.
Grate carrots, then remove seeds from cucumber and chop.
Mix mayonnaise, mustard, and salad cream. Add black pepper and salt and thin out the dressing with some milk. Mix until you are satisfied with the consistency. See notes 1.
Place the potatoes in a large bowl and then add all the chopped ingredients. Add the salad dressing and mix. Taste and adjust salt and black pepper as necessary.
Keep refrigerated until ready to serve.
- In this recipe, I add about 6 tablespoons of milk to the salad dressing. If you want a thicker, stiffer dressing then you can reduce this amount. If you generally like a thinner dressing then add some more milk.
