A delicious and easy smashed potato salad recipe that's perfect for any occasion. Crispy roasted potatoes tossed in a creamy dressing with fresh herbs.
Boil the baby potatoes in salted water for about 10-15 minutes, until fork-tender but not mushy. Drain them well.
Place the drained potatoes on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
Using the bottom of a glass or a potato masher, gently smash each potato until it is flattened but still in one piece.
Roast in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and crispy.
While the potatoes are roasting, prepare the dressing. In a small bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, and lemon juice. Stir in the chopped parsley, dill, and red onion.
Once the potatoes are roasted and crispy, let them cool slightly. Then, gently toss them with the prepared dressing. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Serve immediately or chill for later.
Notes
For an extra crispy potato salad, ensure you smash the potatoes well and roast them until nicely browned.
