Categories     Potato

Time 30m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 kg baby new potato, washed halved, skin on
1 cup whole egg mayonnaise
1/4 cup chopped dill leaves
1/4 cup chopped basil leaves
1/4 cup chopped parsley
1 lemon, grated rind and juice
2 tablespoons baby capers
2 tablespoons chopped baby dill pickles
1/2 red onion, finely chopped
1 garlic clove, crushed

Steps:

  • Cook the potatoes in a large saucepan of boiling water, for 12-15 minutes of until just tender. Drain well then transfer to a serving bowl.
  • Meanwhile, in a small bowl, mix remaining ingredients together and season to taste.
  • Add half the mayo mixture to the warm potatoes and set aside to cool.
  • When you are ready to serve, add remaining mixture and toss to coat.

Tips:

  • Choose the right potatoes. Waxy potatoes, like Yukon Golds or Red Bliss, hold their shape better than starchy potatoes, like Russets, when boiled. This will prevent them from becoming too mushy in the salad.
  • Boil the potatoes until they are just tender. Overcooked potatoes will fall apart easily and make the salad mushy. To check if the potatoes are done, insert a fork into the center of a potato. If it goes in and out easily, they are done.
  • Cool the potatoes completely before adding them to the salad. This will help prevent the salad from becoming watery.
  • Use a good quality extra-virgin olive oil. This will give the salad a rich, flavorful taste.
  • Add fresh herbs to the salad for extra flavor. Parsley, cilantro, and basil are all good choices.
  • Season the salad to taste with salt and pepper.
  • Serve the salad immediately, or chill it for later. Salsa verde potato salad can be served warm or cold.
