Potato salad

Here are 3 different potato salads.

Korean gamja salad by Maangchi: http://www.maangchi.com/recipe/gamja-salad

The cooking method differs slightly, and the resulting Korean gamja salad is a lot more like creamy ice cream texture and the egg isn't mashed either, whereas with the Japanese one, the potato isn't mashed, so you can almost see whole bits of egg and potato. Different presentation and mouth feel but otherwise, a same interpretation of the same fusion recipe. JOC follows the Korean one.

I decided to mash the egg yolk, carrots and potatoes, but chopped the egg white and cucumber, aka more Korean style.


Updated with picture of more Japanese style where everything is more whole.
