Ingredients
- 2 pounds Potatoes raw
- 5 Eggs
- 2 Celery Stalks
- ½ Onion small
Creamy Dressing
- 4 tbsp Mayonnaise
- 1 tbsp Apple Cider Vinegar
- ¼ tsp Onion Powder
- ¼ tsp Garlic Powder
- ⅛ tsp Paprika
- Salt to taste
Instructions
-
Wash and peel potatoes. Cut potatoes into bite sized pieces.
Put the steamer basket on the bottom of the Instant Pot. Arrange cut potatoes inside the steamer basket. Add enough water (2-3 cups) to cover most of the potatoes. Put the eggs on top of the potatoes. If you are not using the steamer basket, follow the instructions without using it.
Place the lid on the Instant Pot, use the manual setting, and cook for 2 minutes. While it is cooking, prepare a pot with really cold water.
-
Use Natural Release, and wait for the valve to drop. Carefully open the lid and very carefully remove the steamer basket from the Instant Pot. Use tongs to remove the eggs into the pot with cold water. Let the potatoes cool and dry.
If not using steamer basket, remove the eggs using tongs and then carefully drain the potatoes.
-
While potatoes and eggs cook, wash and peel the onion. Wash the celery.
Make the Creamy Dressing by mixing together mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, onion powder, garlic powder, paprika and a pinch of salt.
-
Once the eggs and potatoes are cool, peel and chop the eggs. In a mixing bowl combine potatoes, eggs, onions and celery. Add the Creamy Instant Pot Potato Salad Dressing and mix.
Notes
The best way to save time while making this potato salad, is to start potatoes and eggs cooking first, and then chop onions and celery and make the dressing, while they cook. That way, once eggs and potatoes are ready, all you will need is to add the rest of the ingredients in, and add the dressing.
