To end the week I leave with you a simple side dish that is a must with any Trini Sunday meal. Based on the amount of steps you’ll realize that’s it is not that difficult to make. Of course as I always say, you are welcome to experiment with it once you get the hang of it. Maybe try some bacon bits or olives or something else you like. I like to enjoy potato salad with a nice Sunday meal with red beans, stew chicken, water cress and rice. Or even with a nice fried rice or pelau etc. Anyhow, I will be short tonight so enjoy potato salad.

1 pound boiled potato, cubed
1 boiled carrot, cubed

Hi Felix. How many potatoes would be 1lb? I’m cooking for a family of 6, how many potatoes would I need?

That depends on the size of the potatoes. Just weigh a pound of potatoes.
i have lived in the island of trinidad and i loved it. there are so many dishes that i liked. thanks for this website now i can try all of them as my family loves them too.

I learnt some years ago that 1 lb of potatoes is about 5 medium.
Thanks… great recipe!
