Craving for potatoes salad so much after I try the one at Genki Sushi twice at two different location. The first time I had Genki sushi is at Orchard Central and the second time is at Chinatown Point which my friend told me.
I love their potatoes salad, they serve the potatoes salad in chilled (really cold). The texture is like eating ice-cream, once you serve the potatoes into your pelate and its literally melt in your mouth.
I wanted to make something similar like Genki ones. I added another ingredient to give the dish with some sweetness which is CORN. I bought the Japanese cucumber and Japanese corn, both ingredients are excellence. The cucumber taste so crunchy and the corn taste naturally sweet.
I gave my Sis and a relative of mine to try and both comment delicious. I have a difficult time to mash the potatoes as I did not cooked slightly longer hence I did not achieve the kind of smoothness but I can taste the bit and pieces of potatoes.
Ingredient:
- 2 medium potato
- Japanese cucumber (1/2 of it will be enough, cut into small sizes)
- 1/4 cup Japanese corn (Any kind of corn can be obtain too)
- 1/8 cup carrot (Cut into small sizes)
- 1/4 cup of mayonnaise
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Wash and peel off the potatoes skin. Cut into wedges (it will be easier to mash it later).
- Bring a pot of hot water to boil and place the potatoes inside, cooked until no longer hard and turn soft (use a fork and test).
- Cooked the corn and carrots as well in a pot of hot water for a few minutes, do not over cooked the corn and carrots as it will lost the natural sweetness and become soggy.
- Using kitchen paper towels and pack dry the carrots and corn, set aside.
- Mash the potatoes using a fork or potato masher, place in all the other ingredients (corn, carrot and cucumber) together and pour in the mayonnaise, salt & pepper and mix until everything combine.
- Chilled in the fridge at least one hour before servings. Taste better to serve in cold.
