Mixed Potato Salad - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    500 g potatoes (pink skinned peeled cut into 2cm pieces)
    500 g sweet potatoes (kumara peeled and cut into 2cm pieces)
    1/4 cup sour cream
    1/3 cup mayonnaise (egg mayonnaise)
    1/4 cup gherkin (finely chopped)
    2 tablespoons dill (chopped)
    1 tablespoon coarse grain mustard
    1 tablespoon lemon juice
    2 eggs (hard boiled peeled and coarsely chopped)
    1/4 cup sliced almonds (lightly toasted)
Preparation
    Place potato and kumara in a single layer, in a large steaming basket over a pan of simmering water (don't let base of steamer touch the water, cover with a lid or foil and steam vegetables for 12 to 15 minutes or until tender. (I would use my electric 3 tier steamer but if you can't steam I don't see why you can't boil in water till just tender and drain well).
    Remove from heat, drain and transfer to a large bowl to cool.
    Meanwhile whisk sour cream, mayonnaise, gherkins, dill, mustard and juice in a small bowl.
    Combine potato, kumara, sour cream mixture and egg in a large bowl.
    Serve sprinkled with almonds.
