Ingredients

• 2.5 lbs Yukon Gold potatoes
• 1 tbsp Salt
• 1 cup Sour cream
• 0.5 cup Mayonnaise
• 2 tbsp Onion soup mix (store-bought or homemade)
• 0.5 cup Green onions, chopped
• 2 tbsp Fresh parsley, chopped
• 0.25 tsp Black pepper
• 0.5 tsp Paprika (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Peel the Yukon Gold potatoes (if desired) and cut them into bite-sized chunks, about 1-inch squares.

Step 2

Place the potatoes in a large pot and cover them with cold water. Add the tablespoon of salt to the water.

Step 3

Bring the pot to a boil over medium-high heat and cook the potatoes until fork-tender, about 15-20 minutes. Be careful not to overcook them, as you don’t want the potatoes to become mushy.

Step 4

Drain the potatoes in a colander and let them cool for 10-15 minutes at room temperature.

Step 5

While the potatoes cool, prepare the dressing. In a large mixing bowl, stir together the sour cream, mayonnaise, and onion soup mix until well incorporated.

Step 6

Once the potatoes have cooled slightly, add them to the mixing bowl with the dressing. Gently toss to coat the potatoes evenly.

Step 7

Stir in the chopped green onions, parsley, and black pepper. Taste the salad and adjust seasoning if needed.

Step 8

Transfer the potato salad to a serving bowl and, if desired, sprinkle paprika over the top for garnish.

Step 9

Chill the onion dip potato salad in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour before serving to allow the flavors to meld.

Step 10

Serve cold or at room temperature and enjoy!
