Nothing, that is, except a tasty spud drenched in creamy mayo and mixed through with lovely spring onions or chives. With that in mind, we went on the prowl for the perfect potato salad. . .

Aldi's Edenvale Foods Potato Salad /1.39/400g Small, uniform potato chunks and an overly sweet mayonnaise make this commercial and soulless.

M&S New Potato Salad /1.79/250g

Nice uneven potato pieces with paper-thin skins. Plenty of shredded spring onions and a creamy, appealing mayonnaise. Lovely

*****

Tesco Potato Salad /1.53/250g Strong-tasting mayonnaise overpowers the potatoes, while we're left with a strong onion after taste. Not good.

**

Tesco Finest Potato Salad /1.79/250g Big potato pieces dressed in a creamy blend of mayonnaise and sour cream. Lots of spring onions and chives mixed through.

Original and delicious.
