Kikuchan’s Potato-Crab Salad

Ingredients

• 6 small russet potatoes
• 3 hard-cooked eggs, chopped
• 1 (6 ounce) can lump crabmeat, drained
• 1 (2.25 ounce) can sliced black olives, drained
• 1/2 carrot, grated
• 1/2 cup mayonnaise, or to taste
• 1/2 teaspoon white sugar
• Salt and pepper to taste

Directions

Place potatoes into a large saucepan with enough water to cover. Bring to a boil, and cook over medium-high heat for 30 minutes, or until tender. Drain, peel and dice while still hot. This is what will make the salad fluffy. Cover and refrigerate until cold.

In a large serving bowl, toss together the potatoes, eggs, crabmeat, black olives and carrot. Sprinkle with sugar, and stir in enough mayonnaise to moisten. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Chill until ready to serve.
