The Puerto Rican Potato Salad That Will Transport You to the Caribbeans

Name: The Puerto Rican Potato Salad That Will Transport You to the Caribbeans
Total time: 80 min
Ingredients: 2.2 lbs (1 kg) of medium potatoes, preferably red-skinned (because they’re Uncle Pedro’s favorite); 4 large eggs (from happy chickens, as my grandmother would say); 1 cup homemade mayonnaise (or store-bought, we don’t judge here); 1/2 cup finely chopped red onion (to give it that spicy touch we love so much); 1/4 cup diced red bell peppers (the color of love, according to my mother); 2 Granny Smith apples, peeled and diced (the secret touch I learned on a trip to New York); 1/4 cup sliced stuffed green olives (because every party needs guests); 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar (for that acidic touch that awakens the senses); 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard (a little French luxury in our Caribbean dish); Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste (because life needs seasoning); A handful of chopped fresh cilantro (optional, but highly recommended for herb lovers like me)
