Number Of Ingredients 8

3 pounds Yukon or baby white potatoes

1/2 cup mayonnaise
2 tablespoons whole grain Dijon mustard
1 shallot minced
3 tablespoons red wine vinegar

1/3 cup packed finely chopped flat-leaf parsley

FRENCH POTATO AND GREEN BEAN SALAD



French Potato and Green Bean Salad image

If this sounds like a pared-down salade niçoise, it is. Make a bold vinaigrette that is unapologetically fragrant with garlic and anchovy. Boil medium-size potatoes in their skins. Peel, slice and dress them while they are still slightly warm. You can even do the work in advance and then assemble it all just before serving. Authentic, traditional or somewhere in between, maybe we'll just call this a potato salad with a southern French accent and let it go at that.

Categories     salads and dressings

Time 1h15m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

2 pounds medium potatoes, like Yukon Gold or Yellow Finn
Salt and pepper
1 bay leaf
1 large thyme sprig
3 garlic cloves, smashed to a paste with a little salt
1 tablespoon chopped anchovy
1 tablespoon chopped capers
2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
4 tablespoons white wine vinegar
1/3 cup extra virgin olive oil
1 pound small French beans, or small romano or wax beans
4 large eggs
1 tablespoon thinly sliced chives
2 tablespoons roughly chopped parsley
2 tablespoons roughly chopped basil
6 to 8 anchovy fillets, optional, for garnish
8 ounces arugula, optional

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of well-salted water to a boil. Add the potatoes, bay leaf and thyme branch. Cook at a brisk simmer until the potatoes are firm but easily pierced with a skewer, about 30 minutes. Remove and let cool slightly.
  • While the potatoes are cooking, make the vinaigrette: In a small bowl, stir together the garlic, anchovy, capers, mustard and vinegar. Slowly whisk in the olive oil. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Whisk again before using if the dressing separates.
  • When the potatoes are cool enough to handle, remove the skins with a paring knife and carefully cut into pieces 1/4-inch thick, or slightly thicker. Put the slices in a low bowl, season lightly with salt and pepper and add half the vinaigrette. Using your hands, gently coat the potatoes with the vinaigrette, taking care not to break them. Cover and set aside at room temperature.
  • Top and tail the beans. Simmer in salted water until firm-tender, about 3 to 4 minutes, then cool under running water and pat dry.
  • To cook the eggs, bring a medium pot of water to a rapid boil. Add the eggs and cook for 8 minutes for a somewhat soft-centered yolk or 9 minutes for a firmer yolk. Cool the eggs immediately in ice water, then crack and peel. Cut each egg in half and season lightly with salt and pepper.
  • When ready to serve, season the beans with salt and pepper, then dress with the remaining vinaigrette. (Reserve 2 tablespoons vinaigrette for the arugula, if using.)
  • Combine the dressed beans and potatoes, using hands to toss, and pile onto a platter. Sprinkle with chives, parsley and basil and arrange the eggs over the top. Garnish with anchovy fillets, if desired. Dress the arugula and send it to the table separately.

POTATO, GREEN BEAN, AND BASIL SALAD



Potato, Green Bean, and Basil Salad image

The mustard dressing and basil leaves perk up this potato-and-green-bean salad.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Salad Recipes

Number Of Ingredients 8

Coarse salt
3 pounds new potatoes, cut into 1/2-inch-thick rounds
1 1/4 pounds green beans, trimmed
6 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
2 1/4 teaspoons grainy mustard
Freshly ground pepper
1/2 cup plus 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
3/4 cup fresh basil leaves, torn if large

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add 1 teaspoon salt and potatoes. Return to a boil, and cook until potatoes are almost tender, 6 to 7 minutes. Add green beans; cook until potatoes are just tender and beans are bright green and tender, about 4 minutes. Drain. Let cool slightly.

Tips:

  • For the Best Flavor: Use fresh, crisp green beans and tender, waxy potatoes. Avoid starchy potatoes like Russets, as they tend to fall apart when cooked.

  • Make it a Meal: Turn this side dish into a main course by adding some cooked chicken, shrimp, or tofu. You can also add a dollop of creamy dressing for extra flavor.
  • Jazz it Up: Feel free to add other vegetables to this salad, such as chopped red onion, bell pepper, or corn. You can also add some fresh herbs, such as parsley, dill, or thyme, for extra flavor.
