Ingredients:

• 2 lbs (about 1 kg) potatoes (such as Yukon Gold or Russet), peeled and cut into chunks
• 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 1/2 cup mayonnaise
• 2 tablespoons sour cream
• 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
• 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
• 2 celery stalks, finely chopped
• 3 green onions, thinly sliced
• 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
• Salt and black pepper, to taste
• Optional toppings: crispy bacon bits, chopped chives, grated cheese

Instructions:

1. Place the potato chunks in a large pot and cover them with cold water. Add a generous pinch of salt to the water. Bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat to medium and simmer the potatoes until they are fork-tender, about 15-20 minutes.
2. Drain the cooked potatoes and return them to the pot. Mash the potatoes using a potato masher or fork until smooth and creamy.
3. While the potatoes are still warm, add the butter to the pot and stir until it's melted and well incorporated into the mashed potatoes. Allow the potatoes to cool slightly.
4. In a small bowl, mix together the mayonnaise, sour cream, Dijon mustard, and apple cider vinegar until smooth.
5. Pour the mayonnaise mixture over the mashed potatoes and gently fold it in until evenly combined.
6. Add the chopped celery, sliced green onions, and chopped parsley to the potato mixture. Season with salt and black pepper to taste. Stir everything together until well mixed.
7. Transfer the mashed potato salad to a serving dish. If desired, sprinkle with crispy bacon bits, chopped chives, or grated cheese for extra flavor and garnish.
8. Serve the mashed potato salad immediately while still warm, or chill it in the refrigerator for a few hours before serving for a cold salad option.

Enjoy your creamy and flavorful mashed potato salad as a side dish or a standalone meal!
