Saucepan
Salad Mixing Bowl
- 200 gram medium size potato
- 2 tablespoon dill leaves, finely chopped
- 2 tablespoon parsley, finely chopped
- 4 Cup water
- 2 teaspoon salt
Ingredients For Dressing:
- 15 ml extra virgin olive oil
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon red chilli, finely chopped
- 1 tablespoon fresh mint leaves, finely chopped
- 2 teaspoon finely minced garlic
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest
- 1 teaspoon Dijon Mustard
- ½ teaspoon crushed black pepper or to taste
For the dressing, combine olive oil, lemon juice and zest, mustard, chilli pepper, salt, black pepper, and mint leaves in a bowl or bottle with the lid. Whisk or shake nicely to combine all the ingredients.
Bring water to a boil in a large saucepan, and season it with salt. Add potatoes, bring them to a boil, and then reduce to a simmer. Cook for 5 minutes or until just cooked – don’t let them overcook or become too soft.
Transfer boiled potatoes to a colander and drain all the water. Allow them to cool.
Transfer potatoes to a mixing bowl. Add half of the salad dressing over the potatoes. Gently toss them.
Add finely chopped dill and parsley when ready to serve the potato salad. Add the remaining dressing, and toss.
Herbed Potato Salad is ready to serve.
- Like any other potato salad, this one also tastes better after a few hours or the second day. The potatoes slowly absorb the flavours of the dressing and fresh herbs. Hence, I highly recommend making it a day before or at least a few hours before serving.
- Adjust the quantity of garlic and red chilli pepper as per personal taste preference.
- Nutrition information is for per serving.
