Steps

1

Make sure you have all the ingredients before you begin. Not pictured are the spices: you may arrange them as you like.
2

Peel and dice the potatoes and carrot.
3

Start boiling the chopped carrot first - it will take some time to be soft. It's hard to overdo this one, so give it time.
4

Boil the diced potatoes in salted water until they are soft, but not powdery. You may check the softness with a fork from time to time.
5

As the potatoes and carrots are boiling, hard-boil the eggs for 6 minutes. Cool them down and peel them.
6

Remember to check on the potatoes and carrot!
7

Put the eggs, potatoes and carrot in one bowl. You may use an egg dicer. I enjoy breaking them as I mix the salad.
8

Add the mayo, mustard and spices as you mix. Cumin and pepper is my recommendation. Be sure to check the flavor.

You may want to decorate the salad before serving. I like parsley, but cherry tomatoes work too. Or both! Have fun making it into the color and shape you like!
