3. Now in a large mixing bowl, add the mashed potatoes, chopped hard-boiled eggs, sliced cucumber, and grated carrots. Gently mix the ingredients together until evenly distributed.

4. Now add the prepared dressing over the potato mixture and gently toss until everything is coated in the creamy dressing.

5. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate the Korean potato salad for at least 30 minutes to 1 hour to allow the flavours to meld together. Before serving, give the salad a final stir and garnish it with chopped green onions.
