Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.
Wash the baby potatoes thoroughly and cut any larger ones in half to ensure even cooking.
Add the potatoes to the boiling water and cook for 15–20 minutes, or until fork-tender. Drain and set aside to cool slightly.
While the potatoes are cooking, finely chop the red onion and parsley, and strip the rosemary leaves from their stems. Roughly chop the rosemary leaves.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the olive oil, Dijon mustard, white wine vinegar, salt, and black pepper to create the dressing.
Add the warm potatoes to the mixing bowl and toss gently to coat them in the dressing.
Fold in the chopped red onion, rosemary, capers, and parsley, ensuring they are evenly distributed.
Taste and adjust seasoning if needed, adding more salt or black pepper to suit your preference.
Serve the potato salad warm, at room temperature, or chilled. Garnish with additional parsley or rosemary, if desired.
