Ingredients
  

Veggies & Potatoes

  • 1.5 pounds gold potatoes, quartered, skin-on
  • 2 pieces green onions, chopped
  • 1 piece cucumber, chopped

Nuts

  • 1/3 cup salted shelled pistachios, chopped

Herbs

  • 2 tablespoons fresh dill, chopped
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped

Dressing

  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise (regular or vegan)
  • 2 tablespoons brown mustard (or Dijon mustard)
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced or grated
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice (fresh or bottled)
  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup (or agave syrup)

Spices

  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon red chili flakes (optional)

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Preheat the oven to 425℉.
  • Place the quartered potatoes on a greased or parchment paper-lined baking sheet and roast them for 35-40 minutes, or until golden brown with tender, fluffy insides.
  • Meanwhile, in a large mixing bowl, combine the onions, cucumber, pistachios, dill, and parsley; give a mix and set aside.
  • In another bowl, combine the mayo, mustard, garlic, lemon juice, maple syrup, salt, pepper, and red chili flakes (if using); whisk until smooth.

Assembly

  • Once the potatoes are roasted, let them cool for a few minutes, then toss the potatoes with the dressing and pour the chopped veggies over the salad; gently mix until all is well combined.
  • Serve right away for a warm potato salad or chill in the refrigerator for a cold potato salad.

Notes

Roast at high heat (425℉) so potatoes crisp on the outside while staying fluffy inside. Store in an airtight container for up to 3 days in the fridge; reheats well or enjoy cold.
