Grate 1 small carrot and 1 small cabbage.

Boil 2 small potatoes until tender, then finely chop them.

Chop 1 small green bell pepper, 1 small onion, and 1 spring onion.

In a mixing bowl, combine 3 tablespoons mayonnaise, 2 tablespoons white vinegar, 1 tablespoon sugar, 1 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, and 1/2 teaspoon paprika; mix well to create a smooth dressing.

Add the grated carrot, grated cabbage, chopped onion, and chopped green bell pepper to the dressing; mix thoroughly.

Place the salad mixture in the refrigerator to let the flavors meld while the macaroni cooks.

Boil water in a pot, adding 1 teaspoon salt; once boiling, add the elbow macaroni.

Cook the macaroni for 8 to 10 minutes until tender; check for doneness.

Drain the macaroni without rinsing it to retain the starch, which helps it stick together.

Once the macaroni is cooled, add it to the salad mixture along with the chopped potatoes; mix well to combine.
