“I've always wondered about this recipe as its definitely not a typical German Potato Salad. But then there are as may variations of this Salad as there are areas in Germany. My Mum made a different one from my father's mother, who lived in the North of Germany” — a cook, 5.0★
“Hi Nagi! My Mum introduced your recipes to me….and now your recipes are my first ‘go to’ when looking for a new recipe! So far my favourites are your roast chicken, meat patties, chicken enchiladas and moussaka. I LOVE all your additional notes and how yo” — a cook, 5.0★
