Potato Salad

This recipe is one of my mother's. Whenever there was a family get-togther, everyone would request my mother's potato salad. It was the best! I, like so many of my recipes, slight amended it. My mum only used mayonnaise in her dressing; I added sour cream.

What makes this salad so popular is the addition of cucumber and mint. Most people wouldn't think to add these ingredients to potato. It makes for a grerat refreshing salad with any BBQ.
