Crispy Smashed Potato Salad Ingredients:

      • 2 pounds baby potatoes (mini yellow potatoes)

      • 3 tablespoons olive oil, divided

      • 1⁄2 teaspoon salt

      • 1⁄4 teaspoon pepper

      • 3⁄4 cup Greek yogurt

      • 1⁄2 cup mayonnaise

      • 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard

      • 1⁄2 lemon, juiced

      • 1 garlic clove, minced

      • 1⁄4 cup fresh parsley, chopped

      • salt and pepper, to taste

      • 1 shallot, finely chopped

      • 1-2 scallions for garnish, optional

Crispy Smashed Potato Salad Instructions:

  1. Preheat the oven to 425°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper (you may need 2 sheets if they’re small).
  2. Place the potatoes in a large pot of well-salted cold water. Bring to a boil over medium heat and cook for 7-8 minutes – until just fork tender. Drain and let cool slightly.
  3. Pat the potatoes dry with a paper towel, then transfer them to the baking sheet. Gently smash each potato with the bottom of a glass.
  4. Brush with 2 tablespoons of olive oil and season generously with salt and pepper. Roast for 45-60 minutes, flipping halfway, until until golden brown and crispy.
  5. While the potatoes cook, whisk the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil with the yogurt, mayo, Dijon, lemon juice, garlic, and parsley until smooth. Stir in the shallot, taste, and season with salt and pepper, as needed. Cover and refrigerate.
  6. When the potatoes are done, remove the tray from the oven and let cool for 5 minutes. Save some crispy brown potato bits for the topping, then transfer them to a large bowl and gently toss with the herbed yogurt dressing until evenly coated.
  7. Garnish with chopped scallions and crispy potato bits. Serve warm and enjoy.
