Prepare the Potatoes:
Place the peeled and cubed potatoes into a large saucepan and cover them with enough water.
Set the heat to medium-high and bring the water to a boil.
Once boiling, reduce the heat to a simmer, cover the pot, and cook for 20-25 minutes, or until the potatoes are fork-tender.
Drain the potatoes and transfer them to a large mixing bowl.
Tip: Let the potatoes cool completely before proceeding to the next step—this is crucial for achieving the perfect texture and flavor!
Prepare the Remaining Ingredients:
While the potatoes are cooling, chop the hard-boiled eggs into small pieces.
