Potatoes dressed with pollock roe

Jyagaimo no mentaiko ae（じゃが芋の明太子和え）

A Japanese-style salad made with boiled potatoes, mentaiko and mayonnaise.

Very easy to make.The saltiness of the mentaiko(tarako), the richness of the mayonnaise, and the sweetness of the mentsuyu all combine to create a delicious salad.

⋈*Mentsuyu is a versatile seasoning for simmered dishes, udon noodles, and rice bowls. It’s very convenient to have it. If you don’t have mentsuyu, use a mixture of 3g of soy sauce, 3g of mirin, and 1g of dashi stock granules.

Potatoes use a variety called “Danshaku potato”. Not watery and fluffy, Danshaku potatoes are suitable for potato salads and croquettes. Check out this article for more information on the types of potatoes.　 👉 　High-quality butter-roasted potatoes

⋈*Mentaiko（ pollock roe）is the ovaries of walleye pickled in salt. It is also called “Tarako”. It is salty. You can use as an ingredient in rice balls and put it in a salad.I have written more about mentaiko in this article, so please check it out.　👉　French bread with mentaiko sauce

COOKING INSTRUCTIONS

➀Cut potatoes into bite size pieces. Soak in water for a few minutes after cutting.

②Boil potatoes. When potatoes are boiled in hot water, the surface tends to fall apart, so let’s boil them in water.

③When the toothpick can easily go through it, scoop it up with a ladle and put it in a bowl.

④Boil the spinach for 2 minutes in the same pot that the potatoes were removed from.

⑤Soak spinach in cold water and squeeze well.

⑥Cut the spinach into 4cm lengths.

⑦Toss the loosened pollock roe with mayonnaise, mentsuyu, pepper, potatoes, and spinach.

I’m Naoko. After graduating from a registered dietitian training school, I am working as a registered dietitian at a hospital in Japan. I love to cook and eat delicious food. I make recipes with calorie counting. The reason why all the ingredients are written as “g” is to accurately calculate calories. I am especially good at cooking with pressure cookers and ovens. I would like to introduce the recipe to foreigners who are interested in Japanese food. So I started writing Japanese home cooking recipes on my blog in English. 大学卒業後、管理栄養士として病院で勤務しています。レシピはカロリー計算を出来るだけ正確に行いたいので“g”で表記しています。日本の家庭料理のレシピを英語で紹介しています。圧力鍋とオーブンを使う料理が得意です。日本食・和食に興味を持ってもらえたら嬉しいです。よろしくお願いします(*ˊᵕˋ)♡‧₊
