- Meanwhile prep your veggies. Wash, trim,peel and grate the carrots (I use the food processor). Wash, trim, and chop celery. Put in a bowl, cover and set aside.
- When potatoes are tender but not too soft, drain and set aside to cool. Heat oil in a large pan, add onion pieces then crushed garlic. Sauté until it starts to slightly brown but do not burn.
- Add potatoes, turn them over with a large spoon to coat with oil. Cook until soft or of desired consistency (I like to let them cook until they start to turn golden). Discard onion and garlic, put potatoes in a large bowl, add carrots, celery, ranch dressing and paprika. Stir and taste, add salt and pepper, or more paprika until it tastes perfect.
- Enjoy warm, at room temperature, or chill in the refrigerator. My Mom used to make a big bowl in the morning so we had it to munch on all day :)
