Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pounds baby potatoes
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 large, thinly sliced red onion
- 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
- 1 tablespoon whole-grain mustard
- 1 teaspoon honey
- 2 tablespoons, finely chopped fresh parsley
- 1 tablespoon, finely chopped fresh dill
- 0.5 teaspoon (or to taste) salt
- 0.25 teaspoon (or to taste) black pepper
Instructions
Place the baby potatoes in a large pot and cover them with cold, salted water. Bring the pot to a boil over medium-high heat and cook for 10-15 minutes, or until the potatoes are fork-tender. Drain the potatoes and allow them to cool slightly.
While the potatoes are cooling, prepare the warm onion dressing. Heat the olive oil and butter in a large skillet over medium heat.
Add the thinly sliced red onion to the skillet and cook, stirring occasionally, for 5-7 minutes, or until the onions are soft and caramelized.
Stir in the apple cider vinegar, whole-grain mustard, and honey. Cook for 1-2 minutes to combine the flavors, then remove the skillet from the heat.
Once the potatoes are cool enough to handle, slice them in half. Place the halved potatoes in a large mixing bowl.
Pour the warm onion dressing over the potatoes and gently toss to combine, ensuring all the potatoes are well-coated in the dressing.
Sprinkle the finely chopped parsley and dill over the salad, then season with salt and black pepper to taste. Toss again to distribute the herbs evenly.
Serve the potato salad warm or at room temperature. Enjoy!
