Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pounds Yukon Gold potatoes
- 2 teaspoons Salt
- 0.5 cups Mayonnaise
- 0.25 cups Greek yogurt
- 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 1.5 tablespoons Rice vinegar
- 1 tablespoons Sesame oil
- 1 tablespoons Honey
- 1 teaspoons Dijon mustard
- 0.25 cups Cilantro, chopped
- 3 stalks Green onions, sliced thin
- 0.5 cups Roasted red peppers, diced
- 1 tablespoons Black sesame seeds (optional)
- 0.5 teaspoons Crushed red pepper flakes (optional, for heat)
Instructions
Wash and peel the Yukon Gold potatoes, then cut them into bite-sized chunks (approximately 1-inch cubes).
Bring a large pot of water to a boil and add 2 teaspoons of salt. Add the potatoes to the boiling water and cook for 12–15 minutes, or until they are fork-tender but not falling apart.
While the potatoes cook, prepare the dressing. In a medium bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, Greek yogurt, soy sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, honey, and Dijon mustard until smooth and creamy.
Once the potatoes are cooked, drain them and spread them on a baking sheet to cool slightly for 10 minutes. This allows excess moisture to evaporate.
In a large bowl, combine the cooled potatoes with the chopped cilantro, sliced green onions, diced roasted red peppers, and the prepared dressing. Gently toss to ensure everything is evenly coated.
For added texture and flavor, sprinkle the potato salad with black sesame seeds and a pinch of crushed red pepper flakes, if desired.
Cover and refrigerate the salad for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld together.
Serve chilled or at room temperature, and enjoy your Fusion Potato Salad as a side dish or a light main course.
