Equipment
- Saucepan
- Salad Mixing Bowl
Ingredients
- 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
Instructions
- 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.
Notes
- 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.
