Dominican Potato Egg Salad

Potato Egg Casserole with Carrots
Dominican Potato Egg Salad

How much do I love a good potato salad? Well, let’s not get into that! LOL but trust me, a whole lot!

I grew up eating this amazing Dominican Potato Egg Salad not just only on Thanksgiving but at cookouts and family get togethers. It is served cold, so very easy to take to others homes for potlucks.

This is my mother’s recipe. The one that I grew up eating and the one dearest to my heart. A variation to this recipe is adding red beets. Yes! And they do taste amazing in this salad. Growing up though, my brother and I hated red beets (because they were red, hahaha), so my mom always excluded them. As an adult I appreciate them so much. For this recipe though, I kept them out because I know some people aren’t very fond of beets. If you decide to add beets, you can go the easy route by buying canned red beets that are sliced. You just have to drain them and chop them up a bit. Of course, your potato salad will turn pink. So be ready for that!

I also love this salad because it’s a great make-ahead. Make it the night before, refrigerate as directed and then sprinkle some cilantro (or none) at serving time. Voila!

In this season of giving and being thankful, I am thankful for you!

    I’m actually a youtuber “The Empress Vlogs” is my YouTube channel name. My son is half Dominican. I’m a single mom looking for Dominican recipes and I fell in love with this dish! Thank you so much way better than the average potato salad! You just enhanced My original All American potatoe salad recipe! Hahaha! Thanks again!

DOMINICAN RIKI TAKI Dominican "street food" at it' DOMINICAN RIKI TAKI
Dominican "street food" at it's best! 
This sandwich is a staple in the Dominican Republic and I grew up fortunate enough to enjoy these all the time. You usually find them sold in food trucks and that is when they taste the best in my very humble opinion. 
Note: You can place the ingredients buffet style and serve at parties! Have your guests press themselves. Fun!

There is nothing more satisfying than when someone There is nothing more satisfying than when someone tells you they made your recipe and loved it. But even more satisfying, and emotional for me is when that person is your goddaughter. I have cooked for her since she was a baby and now as a young adult, she is cooking the dishes I lovingly made for her and our family. My heart is so full. I love you @kaileymarsden and I miss you so much!

I can finally share my Instant Pot Dominican Oxtai I can finally share my Instant Pot Dominican Oxtail Stew! We call it Rabo Guisado or Rabo Encendido in Spanish.
I've been working to perfect it and I have succeeded. Yay!

This recipe is traditionally cooked on the stove and can take hours. Depending on the cut of the oxtail, up to 4 hours. Made in the instant pot, it takes just over one hour. If you love oxtail as much as I do, that is a game changer! So go ahead and check out the recipe!
