Ingredients
- 7 large potatoes
- 1 medium onion
- 3 to 4 medium dill pickles
- 4 tablespoons red wine vinegar
- 3 beef or chicken bouillon cubes
- 1/2 cup water
- Vegetable oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
Peel potatoes and cook until fork-tender. When soft, drain water and mash until lumpy. Keep hot.
Meanwhile, dice the onions and pickles and mix into a bowl (should have roughly equal amounts). Add red wine vinegar and set to the side, mixing on occasion.
Put the bouillon cubes and water in a sauce pan and dissolve over low heat. Pour the bouillon juice over the potatoes while the potatoes are still hot. Add the bowl of onions and pickles, plus a touch of vegetable oil to prevent sticking. Add salt and pepper to taste. If the potatoes are a little dry, add a little water. Serves 4 to 8, depending on appetites.
