Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams baby potatoes
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
- 2 tablespoons low-fat Greek yogurt
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley
- 2 stalks scallions (green onions)
- 1 clove garlic
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Wash the baby potatoes thoroughly and cut them into halves (or quarters if they are larger).
Place the potatoes in a large pot, cover with cold water, and add a pinch of salt. Bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat and simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork.
While the potatoes are cooking, prepare the dressing. In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, Dijon mustard, apple cider vinegar, and low-fat Greek yogurt until smooth and creamy.
Finely chop the fresh parsley, thinly slice the scallions, and mince the garlic. Set them aside.
Once the potatoes are cooked, drain them well and transfer them to a large mixing bowl while still warm.
Pour the dressing over the warm potatoes and gently toss to coat evenly.
Add the chopped parsley, scallions, and minced garlic to the bowl. Sprinkle in the salt and black pepper, then gently mix everything together.
Serve the warm potato salad immediately, or let it rest for a few minutes to allow the flavors to meld. Garnish with additional parsley if desired.
