Description
A refreshing and flavorful side dish that combines tender baby potatoes with a tangy balsamic dressing.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 pounds baby potatoes, halved
- 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon honey
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1/2 cup red onion, finely chopped
- 1/2 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
- 1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped
- 1/4 cup fresh basil, chopped
Instructions
- Place the halved baby potatoes in a large pot and cover with cold water. Add a generous pinch of salt and bring to a boil over medium-high heat.
- Once boiling, reduce the heat and let simmer for about 15-20 minutes, or until the potatoes are fork-tender. Drain and set aside to cool.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the balsamic vinegar, olive oil, Dijon mustard, honey, salt, and pepper until well combined to make the dressing.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooled potatoes, red onion, and cherry tomatoes. Pour the dressing over the potato mixture and gently toss to coat.
- Fold in the fresh parsley and basil, adjusting seasoning with additional salt and pepper if needed.
- Serve the salad warm or chilled, allowing the flavors to meld for at least 30 minutes before serving.
Notes
- For best taste, serve chilled after letting it sit for at least 30 minutes.
- Feel free to add other vegetables or herbs as per your preference.
