KFC's potato salad is a delicious, creamy side dish that pairs perfectly with fried chicken. The salad is made with diced potatoes, mayonnaise, pickle relish, and a variety of spices. It's a Southern classic that has been enjoyed by families for generations.

ingredients

2 pounds russet potatoes
1 cup mayonnaise
4 teaspoons sweet pickle relish
4 teaspoons sugar
2 teaspoons minced white onion
2 teaspoons prepared mustard
1 teaspoon vinegar
1 teaspoon minced celery
1 teaspoon diced pimientos
1/2 teaspoon shredded carrot
1/4 teaspoon dried parsley
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1 dash salt

directions

Lightly peel the potatoes and cut into bite sized pieces. Place in a pot of salted water and boil the potatoes for 5 to 10 minutes till fork tender, depending upon the size you cut them.

While the potatoes are cooking in a bowl make the dressing by mixing the mayonnaise, pickle relish, sugar, white onion, mustard, vinegar, celery, pimento, carrot, parsley, pepper, and salt.

When the potatoes are done and have cooled add the sauce and refrigerate for 2 hours. The best is if you allow this to sit overnight.
