Main Ingredients- 5 medium potatoes
- 3 medium eggs
- 3 strips of imitation crab meat (surimi)
- 3 Korean green chili peppers (adjust to your spice preference)
- 1/2 cucumber
- 1/2 apple
- 1/2 onion
Dressing & Seasoning- 6 Tbsp mayonnaise
- 3 Tbsp sugar
- 1/2 Tbsp salt
- 1 tsp black pepper
- 6 Tbsp mayonnaise
- 3 Tbsp sugar
- 1/2 Tbsp salt
- 1 tsp black pepper
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
In a deep pan, add about 1 cup of water and line it with parchment paper. Place the washed potatoes and eggs side-by-side in the pan, cover with a lid, and cook over medium heat for approximately 30 minutes until tender. After 30 minutes, gently pierce with a chopstick or fork to check if they are cooked through; they should be soft.
Step 2
While the potatoes and eggs are cooking, prepare the vegetables, imitation crab meat, and apple for the salad.
Step 3
Finely dice the prepared imitation crab meat, Korean green chili peppers, cucumber, apple, and onion after washing and drying them thoroughly. Removing the seeds from the chili peppers will reduce their spiciness.
Step 4
Carefully peel the skins off the cooked potatoes and eggs while they are still warm. Avoid mashing them; instead, use two spoons to gently press and break them into bite-sized pieces. Mashing them too finely might affect the texture.
Step 5
Add the mayonnaise, sugar, salt, and pepper to the mashed potatoes and eggs. Mix gently until evenly combined. Then, add the finely diced ingredients and mix again softly to create your delicious potato salad.
Step 6
Transfer the carefully prepared potato salad into a nice serving dish. Don’t forget to take a photo! (This recipe yields approximately 3 servings.)
Step 7
If you generously fill soft morning buns with this potato salad, you can make about 15 delicious salad buns.
Step 8
Individually wrapping the salad portions in plastic wrap makes them incredibly convenient for portability and storage. You can easily take them out and enjoy them anytime, anywhere, eliminating worries about sudden hunger. Make this satisfying snack that your whole family will love right now!
