Boil the potatoes – but not for too long. Peel while still hot and let them evaporate. Once cooled, cut into not-too-thin slices (3-5 mm thick). Sauté the onions and ham in olive oil until translucent. Deglaze with water and bring to a boil with the instant broth. Pour the onion and ham mixture over the potato slices, add mayonnaise, salt, and vinegar, and stir gently. Cover and season again after 2 hours, adding more vinegar or salt if necessary.
