ROASTED POTATO SALAD WITH JALAPEñO-AVOCADO DRESSING



Roasted Potato Salad With Jalapeño-Avocado Dressing image

As one of the most adaptable dishes, potato salad has withstood countless reimaginings. In this version, roasted potatoes are paired with two types of beans: Cannellini beans offer a hearty creaminess, while green beans add a welcome crisp-tenderness. If you have garlic or onion powder in your spice rack, use it to add some umami to the roasted potatoes. The avocado dressing is zingy and full of lively flavors; make it as spicy as you can handle, and if you are looking for more tanginess, substitute the mayonnaise with sour cream or crème fraîche.

Time 45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

2 pounds small russet or Yukon Gold potatoes, scrubbed and cut into 2-inch pieces
Extra-virgin olive oil
1 teaspoon garlic or onion powder (optional)
Kosher salt (such as Diamond Crystal) and black pepper
1 pound green beans, trimmed and cut into 2-inch pieces
1 (15-ounce) can cannellini beans, rinsed
1 lime, halved
Handful of dill leaves
1 ripe avocado
1/2 cup vegan or regular mayonnaise
1/2 cup chopped dill
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
Juice of 1 lime (2 to 3 tablespoons)
1 garlic clove, peeled and roughly chopped
1 to 2 jalapeños, trimmed and roughly chopped
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt (such as Diamond Crystal)

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 425 degrees. Place the potatoes on a sheet pan and add about 2 tablespoons of olive oil, garlic or onion powder (if using), and about ½ teaspoon of salt. Season with black pepper and toss to coat. Place in the oven and roast for 25 minutes.
  • Meanwhile make the dressing: Combine avocado, mayonnaise, dill, olive oil, lime juice, garlic, 1 jalapeño and salt in a blender or small food processor. Blend until completely smooth. Taste and if you want it spicier, add the second jalapeño.
  • After 25 minutes, remove the potatoes from the oven and toss. Push the potatoes to one side of the sheet pan, and add the green beans to the other side. Drizzle with a little olive oil and season with salt and black pepper. Return the sheet pan to the oven and roast for 10 to 15 minutes, until the beans are crisp-tender and the potatoes are golden on the outside and tender all the way through. Don't overcook the beans; if the beans are done before the potatoes are ready, remove them from the sheet pan and return the potatoes to the oven.
  • Transfer the potatoes and green beans to a large bowl and allow to cool for 5 minutes. Add the cannellini beans along with half the dressing and toss to coat well. Taste and check seasonings, adding more salt and black pepper if needed.
  • To serve, squeeze the lime halves over and scatter with dill leaves. Pass the remaining dressing on the side.

HERBY POTATO SALAD WITH SMASHED OLIVES



Herby Potato Salad With Smashed Olives image

As with coleslaw, there are two schools of potato salad: the mayonnaise-based and the vinegar-based. This recipe plants itself firmly in the latter camp with bright, punchy flavors. The dressing here is a classic red-wine vinegar and Dijon vinaigrette that develops great flavor after marinating with capers, smashed green olives and thinly sliced shallots. Just fifteen minutes in the dressing softens the shallot's bite, and a quick soak brings canned olives to life. There may appear to be too much dressing when you add the cooked potatoes, but as the potatoes cool, they'll absorb it beautifully. (The key is to add them to the dressing as soon as they are cool enough to handle.) Any small potatoes will work for this recipe, and a mix of colors looks particularly nice. The most important detail is that the potatoes should be roughly the same size so that they cook evenly.

Time 30m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 pounds small (or baby) red or Yukon Gold potatoes, all about the same size
Kosher salt and black pepper
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1/3 cup olive oil
1 cup Castelvetrano or other green olives, pitted and smashed (about 4 ounces)
1 large shallot, thinly sliced
2 tablespoons capers, roughly chopped
3 tablespoons chopped fresh mint
3 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley

Steps:

  • Place the potatoes in a large pot; add 2 teaspoons salt and enough water to cover generously. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat and cook for 10 to 20 minutes, depending on the size of the potatoes, until just tender when pierced with a fork. (Be careful not to overcook!) Drain and set aside until just cool enough to handle.
  • While the potatoes cook, in a large bowl, combine the vinegar and mustard with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Slowly whisk in the olive oil. Add the olives, shallot and capers, and set aside to marinate for 10 to 20 minutes.
  • When the potatoes are just cool enough to handle, cut them in half (or quarters, to end up with bite-size pieces), and add them to the bowl with the dressing. Gently combine and set aside to cool completely, tossing occasionally.
  • Stir in the mint and parsley, along with more salt and pepper to taste, and serve the potato salad at room temperature.
