Deluxe Potato Salad - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 1/2 lbs red potatoes, cut into 1/2 inch - 1 inch cubes
1/2 cup mayonnaise
2 tablespoons sour cream
2 tablespoons white wine vinegar
2 tablespoons whole-grain Dijon mustard (see note)
6 -8 blanched asparagus spears, thinly sliced (see note)
1 small carrot, grated
3 large hard-boiled eggs, cut into cubes
2 green onions, sliced
salt & freshly ground black pepper

Preparation

Gently boil the potatoes until just tender. Drain well and cool to room temperature.
Place the mayonnaise, sour cream, vinegar and mustard in large salad bowl and whisk to combine.
Add the potatoes and remaining ingredients and toss to combine.
Cover and refrigerate salad until ready to serve.
