👨‍🍳 Instructions

Place potatoes into a large pot and cover with salted water; bring to a boil.

Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until tender, 30 to 40 minutes.

Cool until easily handled, about 5 minutes.

Peel while still warm.

Cut into thin slices and put in a large bowl.

Mix hot broth with vinegar, oil, salt, and sugar.

Pour immediately over warm potatoes and onion; the potatoes need to still be warm so they can absorb the dressing better.

Allow to stand for 5 minutes; season with salt and pepper.

Sprinkle with chopped chives and serve warm.
