FRENCH STYLE GRILLED POTATO SALAD ALA BOBBY FLAY



French Style Grilled Potato Salad Ala Bobby Flay image

I was skeptical but after one bite I was in awe. The flavors, the textures, the entire recipe is like a symphony in your mouth. (I appologize if that sounds "silly" but it's the truth). The flavors are strong enough that combining it with steak would be perfect. YUMMY!

Categories     Potato

Time 35m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 1/2 lbs new potatoes, small, red and yellow, scrubbed
1/2 cup olive oil
salt and pepper
3 tablespoons white wine vinegar
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1 small red onion, halved and thinly sliced
8 cornichons, finely diced
2 tablespoons capers, drained
1/4 cup chervil, fresh, coarsely chopped, for garnish

Steps:

  • Cover potatoes with water in a medium saucepan. Add 2 tablespoons salt. Bring to a boil; reduce heat and simmer until potatoes are tender, about 8 minutes.
  • Drain potatoes, let cool then slice each in half.
  • Heat the grill to medium.
  • Brush the potatoes with 1/4 cup of the oil and season with salt and pepper.
  • Place the potatoes on the grill, cut-side down and grill until lightly golden brown, about 4 minutes. Turn potatoes over and continue grilling until just cooked through, about 4 minutes.
  • While the potatoes are grilling, whisk together the vinegar, mustard and oil in a large bowl, add the red onion, cornichon, and capers and stir to combine. (I did this step before I began grilling the potatoes).
  • Remove the potatoes from the grill and immediately add to the bowl with the other ingredients and gently stir to combine.
  • Season with salt and pepper. Let sit at room temperature at least 15 minutes before serving. Garnish with chopped chervil (we couldn't find fresh so we used dried chervil).

Tips:

  • Use a sturdy potato that will hold its shape when cooked, such as Yukon Gold or Red Bliss potatoes.
  • Boil the potatoes in salted water until they are tender but still firm. Do not overcook, or they will become mushy.
  • Drain the potatoes and let them cool slightly before slicing.
  • Use high-quality bacon for the best flavor. Thick-cut bacon is ideal.
  • Cook the bacon until it is crispy, then drain on paper towels.
  • Use a large skillet to cook the potatoes and bacon together. This will help to prevent the potatoes from sticking.
  • Stir the potatoes and bacon frequently to ensure that they cook evenly.
  • Add the vinegar, sugar, and mustard to the skillet and stir to combine.
  • Cook for a few minutes more, or until the potatoes are heated through and the sauce has thickened.

  • Serve the potato salad warm or at room temperature.
