Warm Potato Salad with Celery and Avocado

I just love a warm potato salad!

Mushy potatoes, boiled eggs and the slightest hint of mustard in the dressing. Its nice to team the mushiness with something crunchy - Fennel is very nice and adds a different flavour, but today I feel like celery.
The avocado is there purely for sinful purposes... yummmmmmmm.....


Warm Potato Salad with Celery and Avocado.

about 1 kilo of small pontiac potatoes (just big enough to be quatered or 6th-ed)
6 boiled eggs, cut into 6ths
250gm light sour cream
2 tsp grey poupon mustard (the dijon stuff)
2 tsp maille dijonaise (the seedy stuff)
1 tsp masterfoods horseradish cream (the hot stuff!) or substitute 1/4 tsp of good wasabi.
3 tbs mayonnaise (i like the thomy delikatess stuff, or make your own... real mayo!!)
1 red onion, coarsely chopped
3 big stalks of celery, sliced coarsely
1 avocado, cubed
salt and pepper to taste

cut your potatoes and put them in a pot to boil until tender
chop your celery and onions. mix together.
spoon your condiments, salt and pepper into the sour cream - adjust the ingredients to taste if you like it hotter or creamier or more peppery.
drain potatoes, put celery/onion mix into potatoes, pour in your sour cream dressing.
mix well.
add avocados and eggs. mix through.

serve... go back for seconds 'cos its so good. swear that you will make this for the next bbq or picnic. go back for more and find that your housemates have eaten the lot...

EASY!
