Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 lbs Small red potatoes
- 4 tbsp Red wine vinegar
- 3 tbsp Extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 tsp Dijon mustard
- 1 clove Garlic, minced
- 2 tbsp Fresh parsley, chopped
- 2 tbsp Fresh chives, chopped
- 1 tsp Salt
- 0.5 tsp Black pepper
Instructions
Wash the red potatoes thoroughly and cut them into 1-inch chunks. Leave the skin on for texture and flavor.
Place the potato chunks into a large pot and cover with cold water. Add a generous pinch of salt to the water.
Bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat and cook the potatoes for 15-20 minutes, or until they are tender and can be easily pierced with a fork.
While the potatoes are cooking, prepare the dressing. In a small bowl, whisk together the red wine vinegar, olive oil, Dijon mustard, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper until emulsified.
Drain the cooked potatoes in a colander and allow them to cool slightly for about 5 minutes. Transfer the warm potatoes to a large mixing bowl.
Pour the dressing over the warm potatoes and gently toss to ensure all pieces are evenly coated.
Let the potato salad rest for 10-15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. Stir in the chopped parsley and chives just before serving.
Serve the potato salad warm, at room temperature, or chilled, depending on your preference.
