Ingredients

  • 2 medium potatoes
  • 1 large carrots
  • 2 medium cucumbers
  • ½ cup mayonnaise
  • ¼ cup fresh dill
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

  1. 1

    Place the 2 medium potatoes and 1 large carrot in a pot, cover with water, and bring to a boil. Cook until fork-tender, about 20 minutes.

  2. 2

    Drain the potatoes and carrot, let cool slightly, then peel and cut into 1/2 inch cubes.

  3. 3

    Slice the 2 medium cucumbers into thin rounds. If they are watery, sprinkle with a pinch of salt and let sit for 5 minutes, then pat dry.

  4. 4

    In a large bowl, combine the cubed potatoes, carrot, and cucumber slices.

  5. 5

    Add the 1/2 cup mayonnaise, 1/4 cup chopped fresh dill, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. Stir gently to coat everything evenly.

  6. 6

    Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. Serve chilled or at room temperature.
