Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 900 g baby potatoes
- 120 g goat cheese
- 3 tbsp olive oil
- 1 small red onion
- 1.5 tsp Dijon mustard
- 2 tbsp white wine vinegar
- 1 tsp honey
- 2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
- 2 tbsp fresh chives, chopped
- 1 tsp salt
- 0.5 tsp black pepper
Instructions
Wash the baby potatoes thoroughly and cut any larger ones in half to ensure even cooking.
Place the potatoes in a large pot and cover them with cold water. Add a pinch of salt to the water and bring it to a boil.
Reduce the heat to medium and simmer the potatoes for 15-20 minutes, or until they are tender when pierced with a fork.
While the potatoes are cooking, finely dice the red onion and set it aside.
In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, Dijon mustard, white wine vinegar, honey, salt, and black pepper to create the vinaigrette.
Once the potatoes are done cooking, drain them thoroughly and transfer them to a large mixing bowl while still warm.
Immediately toss the warm potatoes with the vinaigrette, ensuring they are evenly coated. This allows the potatoes to absorb the flavors of the dressing.
Add the diced red onion, chopped parsley, and chives to the potatoes, gently folding them in to combine.
Crumble the goat cheese over the potato mixture and lightly toss, allowing the goat cheese to melt slightly from the warmth of the potatoes.
Taste the salad and adjust the seasoning with additional salt or pepper, if needed.
Serve the warm potato salad immediately as a side dish or a light main course. Enjoy!
