Description

A crispy, creamy, and herb-packed twist on traditional potato salad. This dish features golden smashed potatoes roasted to perfection and tossed in a tangy mayo-mustard dressing with fresh herbs and crunchy veggies.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1.5 pounds baby potatoes
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 small red bell pepper, finely diced
  • 1/4 cup red onion, finely diced
  • 1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped
  • 1/3 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper


Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Boil baby potatoes in salted water until fork-tender, about 15–20 minutes. Drain and cool slightly.
  3. Place potatoes on baking sheet. Gently smash each one with a glass or potato masher.
  4. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with salt. Roast for 25–30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden and crispy.
  5. In a bowl, mix mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, red bell pepper, red onion, and parsley. Season with salt and pepper.
  6. Let roasted potatoes cool slightly, then gently toss with dressing.
  7. Serve warm or at room temperature. Garnish with extra parsley if desired.

Notes

  • Use parchment paper for easy cleanup and better crisping.
  • Let potatoes cool slightly before adding dressing to avoid greasiness.
  • Great served warm, but also delicious at room temperature.
