Categories     Salads

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 11

4 large potatoes, peeled and cut into cubes
1/4 c dijon mustard
1/4 c white wine vinegar
2 clove garlic, crushed
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp black pepper
1/2 c olive oil
3to4 oz black olives, drained
1/4 c scallions, sliced
6 oz feta cheese, crumbled
4 jalapeños, seeded and chopped

Steps:

  • 1. Place potatoes in large saucepan and pour in cold water to cover. Bring to boil. Reduce heat, simmer for 10 minutes or until potatoes are tender. Drain.
  • 2. Meanwhile, combine mustard, vinegar, garlic, salt and pepper in large bowl. Slowly whisk in oil. Add potatoes, olives, scallions, cheese and peppers. Toss to mix well. Serve chilled or at room temperature.

Tips:

  • Choose the right potatoes for your salad. Waxy potatoes, such as red potatoes or fingerling potatoes, hold their shape better when cooked and are less likely to fall apart in the salad.
  • Boil your potatoes until they are just tender. If you overcook them, they will become mushy and won't hold their shape in the salad.
  • Add your favorite ingredients to the salad. Some popular additions include celery, onion, hard-boiled eggs, bacon, and cheese.
  • Use a light dressing. A heavy dressing will weigh down the salad and make it less refreshing.
  • Chill the salad before serving. This will help the flavors to meld and the salad will be more refreshing.

Conclusion:

Jalapeno potato salad is a delicious and refreshing side dish that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own personal preferences. So next time you are looking for a new potato salad recipe, give this one a try!
