Description

This isn’t your average potato salad — crispy smashed baby potatoes meet creamy dressing and fresh herbs for a crowd-pleasing side dish with the perfect balance of crunch and creaminess.


Ingredients

Scale
  • lbs baby potatoes

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

  • Salt & pepper to taste

For the dressing:

  • ⅓ cup mayonnaise

  • 2 tablespoons sour cream or Greek yogurt

  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard

  • 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar

  • 1 garlic clove, minced

  • 2 tablespoons chopped chives or green onions


Instructions

  • Boil potatoes in salted water for 15–20 minutes until fork-tender. Drain and let cool slightly.

  • Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Place potatoes on a baking sheet and gently smash with a fork.

  • Drizzle with olive oil, season with salt and pepper, and roast for 25–30 minutes until crispy.

  • In a bowl, whisk all dressing ingredients until smooth.

  • Toss crispy potatoes with the dressing while still warm, garnish with extra herbs, and serve.

Notes

  • For extra tang, add a splash of pickle juice to the dressing.

  • Best served fresh, but can be reheated in the oven for a crisp refresh.

  • Add crumbled bacon or chopped celery for extra texture.
