SPRING ASPARAGUS, HAM AND POTATO SALAD - HONEY MUSTARD DRESSING
A light, fresh and very tasty potato salad, which is more of a meal than a side dish! I made this up when I had a few spears of fresh asparagus left, some boiled potatoes and some honey roast ham in the fridge! This recipe/idea is for two people - but it can be increased with ease, hence my listing of the ingredients in numbers, rather than in ounces or grammes! The dressing can be made ahead......and, hopefully it will be warm enough to sit outside and soak up the spring or early summer sun......c'est Parfait!

- Next, scatter the minced/finely diced red onion over and then the sliced cornichons - if you are using them.
- Pour over the honey & mustard dressing - giving the salad a liberal dousing!
- Season and scatter the chopped chives and/or the chopped chervil over the top.
- Serve with crusty bread & a glass of crisp, chilled white Chablis or Chardonnay!
- Optional ideas:.
- You could also add peas, broad beans, olives or crispy bacon!

Tips:
- Always start with cold potatoes: This will help them hold their shape and prevent them from becoming mushy.
- Use a variety of potatoes: Red, white, and yellow potatoes all have different flavors and textures, so using a mix will give your salad a more complex flavor.
- Don't overcook the potatoes: They should be tender but still have a little bite to them.
- Let the potatoes cool completely before adding the dressing: This will help the dressing to adhere to the potatoes and prevent them from becoming watery.
- Use a good quality mustard: A grainy mustard will give your salad a more robust flavor than a smooth mustard.
- Don't be afraid to add other ingredients: Celery, onions, hard-boiled eggs, and pickles are all popular additions to ham and mustard potato salad.
- Taste the salad before serving and adjust the seasonings as needed: You may need to add more salt, pepper, or mustard.
