How To Make Trini Potato Salad | Foodie Nation

We're keeping things simple this week with this creamy Potato Salad:
Yield: 12 Portions
INGREDIENTS
3 ½ Lbs Potatoes
2 Tsp Salt
4 Hard Boiled Eggs, peeled
1 - 10oz Can of Peas & Carrots, drained
2 Pimento Peppers, finely minced
¼ Cup Celery Stalk, finely minced
3 Tbsp Fresh Parsley, minced
1¼ Cups Mayonnaise
1 Tbsp Yellow Mustard
1 Tsp Lemon Juice
1 Tsp Sugar
Salt & Black Pepper to taste
METHOD
1. Wash potatoes and scrub their skins. Cut each potato into halves or quarters depending on how large they are. Place potatoes in a large pot and fill with water to cover potatoes. Sprinkle in the 1 tsp of salt in the water and place pot on high heat. Cover and bring to a boil then reduce to a simmer and cook for 15 minutes or until potatoes are cooked but firm to the touch. (Stick a knife into the largest piece of potato and the knife should come out easily)
2. Strain potatoes and let cool. Peel and discard skins. Cut pieces of potatoes into 1 inch cubes roughly and place into a clean mixing bowl. Cut hard boiled eggs into rough cubes and add to the potatoes.
3. Place in the strained peas and carrots and all other ingredients.
4. With a rubber spatula, gently mix mayonnaise and other accouterments onto the potatoes by folding them carefully as to prevent potatoes from mashing up.
5. Taste potato salad and season with salt and black pepper to your preference. Mix once more to incorporate and store salad in a clean bowl in the chiller covered until ready to be eaten.
6. Enjoy with BBQ meats, stewed chicken or even with red beans as a great accompaniment to any meal.

You can peel and cut up the potatoes then boil. Cooks faster and you don't have to wait for it to cool to peel and cut up.

[@jayfab4689]

People from Trinidad are gorgeous and cook well. I am West African and enjoy the food.

[@kaalad3666]

Have you noticed any similarities?

Thank you!

Recipes always seem to mess up with other people even if they make a 30 minute video lol You two are the best! Thank you

[@riceman868]

I liked before I even watched their videos are always good 😋😍

[@annettewarwell7210]

I am a Trinidadian living in Glasgow i do remember the potatoe salad i my mummy use to make and watching it now on T v i am salivating. Fabulous

[@karenbell9328]

I absolutely love your simple yet detailed videos. Very easy to follow with a delightful final result each time! Thank u both!!!👍🏽

[@mjramdin]

Your recipes always come out perfectly at home... love the videos. I’m requesting breadfruit oil down recipe as it’s in season now.

[@chrisparker5415]

First time I made potato salad I added celery. Next time I substituted chopped sweet pickles for celery. Tastes so much better.

[@rseetal1717]

You and kessie, good combination with your little humor, here and there.Love your show ,the best.

[@MIRofTV]

My mother in law makes her potato salad similar to this but she adds a finely chopped apple, I was skeptical at first but boy does it bring out the dish even more!

[@merlinholder7119]

Guys i love the way u kid around u changed your location too i do mines the same way except i must put in some fine chopped up onions

[@kcl060]

I just made this, with a few tweaks, I definitely added the corn, and I added some minced onion and made flavor more like we do in the South, more mustard, vinegar, and sugar, plus I added a bit of garlic powder. Yummy! That potato trick was a lifesaver! I pretty much never make potato salad because of the headache with chopping and peeling, but this way was a breeze and far less likely to overcook and cause the potatoes to break up.

[@nardalovell4359]

I was watching your curry stew chicken video and then this one pop up. I love you guys. It’s roti time please. Keep up the great work.

[@sharonandrews4132]

Yummy!! Kesi, you guys are great cooking together.

Yum. Will definitely try chef Jason way of it. I do put everything that he did but his method of putting it together was really lovely. Can't wait to give it a try.

[@rudyvel]

I never thought of putting carrots and peas in potato salad but that sounds good 😊. I put it in Spanish rice so I'm going to try it in potato salad today!

[@tricia-dawnchaitram3918]

I like your folding in method. You all are so lively and entertaining.

[@shaktisingh5586]

BBQ lamb paired with potato salad, bbq fish as well! Foodie Nation you gotta make this! Thanks

[@denisefrancois4727]

I sometimes add boiled and diced beet root to get the nice pink colour. I also dice my potato before boiling and it doesnt melt away.

[@kavitamohammed3598]

I love you guys so much, everytime I'm unsure about a dish I always use you guys as a reference! Love the stale jokes from chef Jason and the sarcasm from Kez ❤🖤🤍 #MyFoodieAirFryer #MyFoodieAirFryer#MyFoodieAirFryer #MyFoodieAirFryer #MyFoodieAirFryer #MyFoodieAirFry

#MyFoodieAirFryer Did not think anybody could make this dish better than my sister, until now. I am going to make this one and show it off. Thank you chef, didn't know you were a singer as well.

[@ayodeler39]

I love the lemon freshness and celery crunchiness of this recipe. One little variation I love also is to toss in lemon juice over my boiled cubed potatoes and season with white pepper before adding my mayo etc. 👌🏽

[@denisecraftylady238]

I can’t wait to make this tomorrow for our neighborhood 4th of July ,Americans love our “ Trini “ potato salad , I add relish to give a little tangy taste ,

😋 yum..my this Sunday 7/5/20 side dish!!

[@kcl060]

Kezzi, girl, I could fool you on my half yogurt potato salad, haha. Indian or Greek style yogurt is thick and creamy without the sourness of other yogurts, and it stays yummy. Tasted just like Mommy's, and everyone loves hers. I've done sour cream as well instead of yogurt. It works well, but I always have yogurt. Can't wait to try this! Kezzi, you're hilarious with the healthy food eye roll lol! Is the acid typically lemon in Trini potato salad? We use white and/or apple cider vinegar. We also use LOTS of egg in the South--an egg per pound of potatoes is perfection

[@kezziannemiller5482]

I actually loveee Greek yogurt (as a snack with some berries thrown in) so I’d love to try your yogurt potato salad.

[@sensimania]

I've never seen potatoes so big before. I thought they were yams 😳

[@stacylyons8579]

Loving the upgrade. Can you pls show me how to do Barbecued Pork?

[@DarthBalsamic]

The way I like to make potatoes salad interesting is by adding beets; preferably pickled beets. Sooo good.

[@roxanrichards8668]

That exactly how I made my potatoes salad 🥗, with a little butter melted in the potatoes

[@ayealialexwood4886]

Hi guys thanks for the recipe and tips, I have never done my potato salad this way, I am one of the ppl that does put in everything in phases and tun up the salad each time, your way looks far more professional. And btw wha alyuh do wid my ole kitchen?

Mixed shrimp and vegetable rice and grilled pork to go with the potato salad.

[@Pritie-rw1lp]

Hey Chef and Kezzie.... maybe you can do something with pork with crispy skin or maybe even some jerk pork.. ribs is good too! Hope you guys decide to make something really easy to go with the potatoe salad!

[@allysonkalicharan4224]

Or geera pork

[@DevaNeeramanii]

So...lemme aks yuh dis...How come yuh peel de potato AFTER yuh boil it? Why not BEFORE?

[@chefjasonperu]

You can do it like that also. The conversation with that is that sometimes nutrional leaching tends to occur when the skins are off and the probability of the potatoes becoming too water logged may be a possibility.

[@DevaNeeramanii]

@@chefjasonperu Tanx, eh. Gud tuh know. Personally, I prepare my potato salad with the skins on throughout from start to finish (after they've been well scrubbed, of course)

[@akilahgeorge978]

I'm with Kezi, no corn. Is it weird that I would love to eat that whole bowl? lolZzz lovely job as usual♥️
