Hints & Tips
- Use crisp apples – Varieties like Granny Smith or Pink Lady add a nice crunch and balance the sweetness of the pineapple.
- Make it creamier – Add a little extra mayonnaise or a spoonful of plain yogurt for a creamier texture.
- Serve chilled – This salad is most refreshing when served well chilled.
- Try fresh pineapple – Fresh pineapple gives a brighter, tangier flavour than canned.
- Prepare ahead – You can cook and dice the potatoes and peas earlier in the day to save time when assembling.
