Best 4 Another Wonderful Potato Salad With Leeks Recipes

TANGY POTATO AND LEEK SALAD

Steps:

• In a large pot, bring potatoes to a boil over high in salted water. Reduce to a rapid simmer and cook until potatoes are tender when pierced with a knife, 15 minutes. With a slotted spoon, transfer potatoes to a large bowl. Return water to a boil, add leeks, and cook until tender, 10 minutes. With a slotted spoon, transfer leeks to a blender. Add mustard, oil, vinegar, and 1/3 cup water; puree until very smooth. (Use caution when blending hot liquids.)
• Add leek mixture to potatoes and toss; season with salt and pepper. Top with parsley and serve warm or at room temperature.

WARM POTATO LEEK SALAD

Steps:

• In a large bowl, whisk the mustard with the vinegar. Whisk in the canola oil in a thin stream and season with salt and pepper.
• Bring 2 medium saucepans of salted water to a boil. Add the potatoes to one and cook for 20 minutes.
• Simultaneously, cook the asparagus and leeks in the other saucepan for 5 minutes. Drain and pat dry; add to the vinaigrette. Drain the potatoes and slice 1/2 inch thick; add to the bowl.
• Add the chives, season with salt and pepper and gently toss the salad. Serve warm.

POTATO, LEEK, AND PEA POT PIE WITH SPINACH-ARUGULA SALAD

Steps:

• Place rack in upper third of oven; preheat to 425°F. If you see or feel dirt in leeks, rinse well, separating layers, then pat dry; otherwise, leave rounds intact.
• Heat 1 Tbsp. oil in a 10" cast-iron or other deep, heavy, ovenproof skillet over medium-high. Cook sausage, stirring occasionally, until browned, 5-7 minutes. Add garlic and cook until golden brown, about 2 minutes more. Using a slotted spoon, transfer sausage and garlic to a plate, reserving about 2 Tbsp. oil in pan.
• Return pan to low heat and add flour, 1 Tbsp. at a time, stirring to combine. Cook, stirring constantly, until mixture starts to smell toasty and is the color of peanut butter, about 5 minutes.
• Stir in stock 1/4-cupful at a time. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium-low. Add carrots, potatoes, and leek and simmer until carrots and potatoes are just softened and liquid is reduced by half, 10-12 minutes. Add reserved sausage and garlic, peas, dill, 2 Tbsp. lemon juice, 3/4 tsp. salt, and 1/2 tsp. pepper and stir to combine.
• Remove from heat. Place pastry over skillet, tucking corners gently into sides; it won't completely cover pan. Whisk egg with 1 Tbsp. water (if not using, substitute 1 Tbsp. oil) in a small bowl and brush top of pastry. Cut four 1" slits in pastry to vent.
• Bake pot pie until pastry is beginning to brown and underside is cooked, 23-25 minutes. Let cool 10 minutes before serving.
• Meanwhile, whisk remaining 4 Tbsp. oil, 2 Tbsp. lemon juice, 1/2 tsp. salt, and 1/4 tsp. pepper in a large bowl. Add spinach, arugula, radishes, cilantro, parsley, and almonds and toss to combine.
• Divide pot pie among plates and serve salad alongside.
