English Pub Potato Salad With Cucumber and Bacon

Did not see this recipe anywhere on Allrecipes and, as it's been a huge favorite here for years, I decided to post it. Dazzling with a nice steak! Serve year round. Turkey bacon and fat-free mayo may be substituted, though keep in mind that both will sacrifice a bit of taste. :)

Ingredients

• 1 cup mayonnaise
• 6 slices bacon
• salt and pepper to taste
• ½ cup chopped fresh parsley
• 3 hard-cooked eggs, chopped
• 1 tablespoon paprika
• 1 cucumber, chopped
• ½ cup chopped red onion
• 1 pinch paprika, for garnish
• 8 red potatoes
• 1 cup celery, chopped
• 3 sprigs fresh parsley, or as desired

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Place potatoes into a large pot and cover with salted water; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until tender, about 20 minutes. Drain and cool. Chop potatoes and transfer into a large salad bowl.

Step 2

Place the bacon in a large skillet and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Drain the bacon slices on paper towels. Crumble bacon when cool.

Step 3

Stir mayonnaise, crumbled bacon, cucumber, red onion, 3 chopped eggs, celery, 1/2 cup parsley, and 1 tablespoon paprika into the potatoes until thoroughly combined. Season to taste with salt and black pepper. Garnish salad with slices of hard-cooked egg, 3 sprigs of fresh parsley, and a pinch of paprika.
