Eula Mae Dore'S Potato Salad - cooking recipe

Ingredients

6 red potatoes, about two pounds, scrubbed
6 eggs, hard cooked
1 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup celery, finely diced
2 tablespoons red bell peppers, finely diced
2 tablespoons green bell peppers, finely diced
2 tablespoons gherkins, finely diced
salt
pepper

Preparation

Place the potatoes in a saucepan, cover with water, and add 1 teaspoon salt. Bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to a simmer and cook the potatoes until nice and tender, about 25 minutes.
Drain. Peel the potatoes when they are cool enough to handle.
Place the egg yolks in a large bowl and mash them with a fork.
Add the mayonnaise and mix well. Coarsely chop the egg whites and add them to the mayonnaise mixture.
Cut the potatoes into quarters, and then cut the quarters into 1/4 inch thick slices. Add them to the mayonnaise mixture along with the remaining ingredients, including salt and toss gently to combine.
