by | Jun 22, 2020

During the summer I make salads regularly, as they are simple, healthy, and taste awesome. Today I prepared a salad with boiled potatoes, dill, and dijon mustard. It can be considered as a side dish or accompanied with a main dish.

Ingredients:

  • 2 pounds red potatoes
  • 1 tablespoon Italian dressing (or vinegar with one teaspoon of oregano)
  • 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • ½ cup extra-virgin olive oil
  • ½ cup spring onions, finely chopped
  • ½ cup cilantro, finely chopped
  • ½ cup fresh dill, finely chopped
  • 6-8 cherry tomatoes, cut half
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon roasted combination of spice powder (1 teaspoon cumin seeds, 1 teaspoon raw coriander, and 2 teaspoons crushed red chili flakes; combine and roast on a low flame, then grind into a powdered form)
  • Sea salt according to taste

Method:

Boil potatoes with salt in a large saucepan for about 20 minutes until they are tender. Drain the potatoes and set aside to cool completely.

Salad dressing:

Whisk together in a large bowl, mustard, Italian dressing, honey, roasted combination of spice powder, extra-virgin olive oil, black pepper, and sea salt.

Assembling:

In the serving bowl, add the potatoes and prepared dressing, and mix thoroughly. Sprinkle the potatoes with spring onion, cilantro, dill, and cherry tomatoes, and adjust the sea salt.
