Description

A delightful twist on the classic potato salad, this recipe features crispy smashed baby potatoes coated in a creamy, flavorful dressing. It’s quick, easy, and perfect for any occasion.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 pounds Baby Potatoes
  • 3 tablespoons Olive Oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon Salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon Pepper
  • 3/4 cup Greek Yogurt
  • 1/2 cup Kewpie Mayonnaise
  • 2 teaspoons Dijon Mustard
  • 1/2 lemon, juiced
  • 1 Garlic Clove, minced
  • 1/4 cup Fresh Parsley, chopped
  • 1 Dill Pickle, finely chopped
  • 1 Shallot, finely chopped

Instructions

  • Wash the baby potatoes. Place them in a pot of salted water and boil for about 15 minutes, or until fork-tender.
  • While the potatoes are boiling, preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
  • Drain the boiled potatoes and let them cool slightly. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Gently smash each potato with a fork or your palm until slightly flattened.
  • Drizzle the smashed potatoes with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
  • Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy.
  • In a bowl, combine Greek yogurt, kewpie mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, minced garlic, chopped parsley, dill pickle, and shallot. Mix well to create the creamy dressing.
  • Once the potatoes are crispy, remove them from the oven and let them cool slightly.
  • Toss the warm smashed potatoes with the creamy dressing, ensuring each potato is well-coated.
  • Serve immediately or chill in the fridge for later.

Notes

  • For a spicy kick, add chopped jalapeños to the dressing.
  • Regular mayonnaise can be substituted for Kewpie if unavailable.
  • Chilling the salad enhances the flavors, but it is also delicious served warm.
  • This salad is naturally gluten-free, but check your mayo and mustard brands.
  • Add diced rotisserie chicken or crumbled bacon for extra protein.
