GRILLED SMASHED POTATOES WITH TOASTED CUMIN VINAIGRETTE
Steps:
- Put the cumin in a small skillet over low heat and toast, stirring frequently, until fragrant but not dark, 2 minutes. Remove to a bowl, add the olive oil, vinegar and salt and pepper and whisk to combine. Let sit at room temperature to allow the flavors to meld.
- Put the potatoes in a pot, cover with cold water, add 1 tablespoon of salt, bring to a boil and cook until a paring knife inserted meets with some resistance, about 8 minutes. Drain and transfer to a bowl.
- Heat a charcoal or gas grill to high.
- Using a potato masher, smash the potatoes, leaving them very chunky, and toss with the canola oil and some salt and pepper. Put the potatoes in a grill basket and grill, covered, tossing occasionally, until slightly charred and crisp in spots, about 6 minutes. Remove to a bowl and toss with the vinaigrette. Taste, season as necessary and toss again with the chopped parsley.
POTATO SALAD WITH DIJON VINAIGRETTE
There's nothing complicated about this potato salad - it's really just boiled red potatoes tossed with a simple Dijon mustard vinaigrette and a generous smattering of scallions and fresh herbs - and that's the beauty of it. It's served cold or at room temperature, and its flavor gets better as it sits, making it an ideal dish to bring to a potluck or a picnic.

LEMON VINAIGRETTE POTATO SALAD
I developed this recipe for a friend who needed a potato salad that could withstand Fourth of July weather. The vinaigrette was a safe and delicious alternative to traditional mayonnaise-based potato salads. I've also substituted fresh thyme for the basil. Any fresh herbs would be great! -Melanie Cloyd, Mullica Hill, New Jersey
