Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 g Baby potatoes
- 200 g Smoked trout
- 0.5 Red onion
- 2 Celery stalks
- 2 tbsp Capers
- 2 tbsp Fresh parsley
- 1 tbsp Fresh dill
- 3 tbsp Mayonnaise
- 2 tbsp Greek yogurt
- 2 tbsp Lemon juice
- 1 tsp Dijon mustard
- 0.5 tsp Salt
- 0.25 tsp Black pepper
Instructions
Place the baby potatoes in a large pot of salted water. Bring to a boil and cook for 15-20 minutes, or until the potatoes are fork-tender. Drain and let cool slightly.
While the potatoes are cooking, flake the smoked trout into bite-sized pieces and set aside.
Finely chop the red onion, slice the celery stalks thinly, and roughly chop the parsley and dill.
In a small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, Greek yogurt, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, salt, and black pepper to make the dressing.
Once the potatoes are cool enough to handle, cut them in halves or quarters, depending on their size.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooled potatoes, smoked trout, red onion, celery, capers, parsley, and dill.
Pour the dressing over the potato mixture and gently toss to combine, ensuring everything is well-coated.
Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
Serve chilled or at room temperature as a main dish or a side.
