An excellent recipe with a nice Mexican twist. This ends up into a potato salad that’s so yummy and adequately spicy. “Hot” or “Spicy” isn’t a typical feature of potato salads but this particular one has a good spicy taste. It’s blended with taco seasonings, a bona fide Mexican seasoning mix of onions and peppers that would turn every dish into a fiesta of flavors. Spicy-haters shouldn’t be worried about this because the resulting flavor is not too spicy, just warm enough to complement with the rest of the ingredients of this salad. It’s easy and quick to prepare. Now, here’s what you need and how to make this flavorful Mexican potato salad.
Ingredients
  • 8-10 regular red potatoes
  • 2 tsp. cumin (10 ml)

  • 1 cup mayo, Hellman’s (220 g)
  • ½ cup sour cream (120 ml)
