Directions
(tap text to cross out step)
- Place potatoes in a large pot and cover with cold, salted water. Bring to a boil and cook until fork-tender, about 15-20 minutes. While potatoes are boiling, preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
- 2 lb potato, scrubbed (910 g)(baby gold)
- 2 lb potato, scrubbed (910 g)
- In a large salad bowl, whisk together the greek yogurt, mayonnaise, dijon mustard, lemon juice, minced garlic, fresh dill, and fresh parsley. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- ¾ cup greek yogurt (150 g)
- ½ cup kewpie mayonnaise (112 g)
- 2 tsp dijon mustard (10 g)
- ½ lemon, juiced (30 g)
- 1 clove garlic, minced (3 g)(large size)
- ¼ cup dill, chopped (15 g)
- ¼ cup parsley, chopped (15 g)
- ½ tsp salt (3 g)(to taste)
- ¼ tsp black pepper (0.50 g)(to taste)
- Stir the finely chopped celery abd red onion into the dressing. Cover and place in the refrigerator for the flavors to meld while the potatoes roast.
- 2 stalk celery, chopped (100 g)
- ½ red onion, finely chopped (50 g)(medium size)
- Once tender, drain the potatoes well and let them steam dry for a few minutes. Transfer the dry potatoes to your prepared baking sheet. Use the bottom of a glass or measuring cup to gently smash each potato to about a 1/2-inch thickness.
- Drizzle the smashed potatoes with olive oil and season generously with salt and pepper. Roast for 40-50 minutes, flipping halfway through, until they are deep golden brown and crispy.
- 1 tbsp olive oil (13 g)
- ½ tsp salt (3 g)(to taste)
- ¼ tsp black pepper (0.50 g)(to taste)
- Let the potatoes cool on the baking sheet for 5-10 minutes. This slight cooling prevents the dressing from melting. Reserve a handful of the crispiest potato pieces for garnish.
- Gently fold the warm smashed potatoes into the bowl with the creamy dressing until everything is well-coated. Garnish with the reserved crispy potato bits and extra fresh dill. Serve immediately or chilled.
