potato salad
Description
A simple dish to prepare. I really enjoy making this salad as a side dish for meat. Unlike fatty salads, this dish is lighter in composition and contains no mayonnaise. The sweet and sour dressing is perfectly suited for this salad. Serve chilled.

Step 1
Slice the onion into thin half-rings. Prepare the dressing: mix vinegar with water, add sugar and salt. Add mustard and vegetable oil. Mix well. Pour the dressing over the onion.

Step 2
While the onion is marinating, boil the potatoes in their skins, then peel them. Slice thinly and layer alternately with the onion in a salad bowl. I ended up with 5 layers of potato and 5 layers of onion.

This is the salad I ended up with! It can be served as a standalone dish. Also, the "Viennese" salad goes perfectly with hot sausages or frankfurters.
