Ingredients
8 portion(s)
- 1000 g red skinned potatoes
- 150 g Diced bacon
- 2 spring onions, sliced
- 20 g olive oil
- 60 g parmesan, shaved
- 6 eggs
- 500 g water
Dressing
- 200 g mayonnaise
- 15 g wholegrain mustard
- 10 g balsamic vinegar
Recipe's preparation
Add bacon, oil and spring onion (keep a little for garnish) to bowl. I like to slice my spring onion as I like how it looks in the dish, but you could chop this on speed 4 for a few seconds if you prefer
Cook 100c, "Counter-clockwise operation" speed 1 for 3 minutes. Transfer this to your salad serving dish and set aside. No need to wash the bowl
Add 500g water to the bowl. Put diced potatoes in the Varoma dish (no tray) and steam for 15 minutes, varoma temp, speed 2
Insert basket into bowl, add the 6 eggs and replace lid and varoma with potatoes in. Cook for a further 14 minutes, varoma temp, speed 2. Check potatoes are cooked. They should be not too cooked that they fall apart, but not too firm either. A knife should pass through them easily but not mash them. Leave potatoes in the varoma and set aside with the lid underneath to catch any drips and cool down while you prepare the rest of the salad
Remove basket with your spatula. Put eggs into a sink or bowl of cold water to cool down as you peel them. Quarter and slice eggs. Empty steaming water from bowl and dry.
Add dressing ingredients and mix on speed 3 for 5 seconds. Pour potatoes into your salad bowl (on top of bacon & onion mixture). Add eggs and shaved parmesan (keep a little for garnish) on top. Pour dressing from bowl over the salad and mix dressing through until combined.
Top with some spare spring onion or fresh chives and some of the shaved parmesan. Refridgerate until cool and serve

Tip
EVERY time I make this I hear "I LOVE your potato salad" so I thought I better share the recipe. We Thermomix folk are a caring sharing bunch! You can most certainly use less eggs if you don't have 6 spare eggs, but it does taste awesome with all 6. Hope you enjoy it, and put your own touch on it if you like. Would love to hear what you think. Nat

You are not the only one! I have recently moved all my recipes to other folders and couldn't be bothered looking for the right folder. Easier to come here!
Love this. Even my really fussy 38 son loves it.
Amazing!

I've made this so many times I thought it's about time I acknowledge the creator of such a delicious potato salad. Yes we all love your potato salad! I make it exactly as is except sometimes I make half potato, half sweet potato or add a bit of pumpkin if I don't have 1 kg of regular potatoes. But I do prefer all regular potatoes. My adult son takes it to work the next day for lunch if there is any left that is and as you mentioned it is even better the next day.

This is gorgeous! Thank you for sharing I added one clove of garlic with the bacon, spring onion & oil. And instead of 200 grams of mayonnaise, I used 100 grams mayo, 70 grams aioli & 70 grams of sour cream I also added more bacon & an extra egg as I wanted to make enough of this to make dinner 2 nights in a row for bbq’s I love it!

Hubby has made this 3 times now. I love the Balsamic hint to the Salad. It is a hit with both Miss 19 and Miss 16. 😋
So good!...
So good!
Made this for a recent BBQ and everyone commented on how good it was!
I went the extra mile and made fresh mayo using the no fail, no fuss, no butterfly, whole egg mayo recipe and OMG!
Hubby isn't into things with mayo so I actually put the mayo "on the side" and used dijon as the mustard and mixed that through the potatoes and he gave it the thumbs up too!
Yum!

I just made this tonight and the flavour is delicious. One thing I did wrong though was overcook the potatoes unfortunately. I did halve the recipe as there are only 2 of us but I didn't reduce the cooking time for the potatoes enough. I may also have cut them a bit too small.
Oh...and next time I think I'll pan fry the bacon to get it crispier like I usually do. The balsamic gives this a real lift in my opinion!
Trial and error though!! Hopefully I'll get it right next time.

Perfect potato salad every time!! I skipped the parmesan and it's still tasty. Helps if your're on a budget. I also put only 10 grams of mustard as I'm not a mustard fan. Didn't notice it.

Made this recipe for a Bbq today. I wasn't confident in using the Verona steamer but this dish turned out delicious. The recipe was simple to follow, moorish and received many compliments. Very happy with this recipe and can vary the dressing if desired. Thanks.

This had become a staple in our menu. Everyone loves the saltines of the bacon combined with the rest of the ingredients. I don't add the balsamic vinegar and use wholegrain mustard.
