Ingredients

3 pounds new potatoes, unpeeled
2 teaspoons salt
1 10-ounce box frozen peas, thawed
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1/2 cup sour cream
1 teaspoon minced garlic
2 teaspoons curry powder
1 teaspoon ground cumin
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
3 scallions, sliced into thin rounds, including some green

Steps:

Scrub the potatoes. Put them in a large pot and add enough lightly salted water to cover them by 2 inches. Bring the water to a rolling boil and add 1 teaspoon of the salt. Cook until the potatoes are tender, about 15 minutes. Drain and cool to room temperature. Chop into bite-size pieces, place them in a large bowl and add the peas.
In a small bowl, combine mayonnaise, sour cream, garlic, curry powder, cumin, vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, the remaining 1 teaspoon of salt and the pepper. Whisk until smooth. Pour over potatoes and peas, add scallions and toss gently to combine well. Cover and chill until shortly before serving time.
