Ingredients
 
 

  • 2 lbs potatoes note 1
  • 8 cups water
  • ½ tbsp salt

Dressing:

  • cup sour cream
  • ¼ cup mayonnaise
  • ¼ cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 1 ½ tsp onion powder
  • 1 tbsp fresh dill
  • ½ tbsp parmesan
  • ½ tbsp fresh parsley
  • ½ tbsp chives
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ¼ tsp ground black pepper
  • ½ lemon zest and juice

Instructions
 

  • Wash and cut the potatoes into 1-inch pieces, leaving the skin on. Try to keep them all a similar size to make sure they cook evenly.
    2 lbs potatoes, 8 cups water
  • Pour 8 cups of water into the pot and add the cubed potatoes. Boil the potatoes until you can pierce a fork through them. Approximately 30 minutes.
  • While the potatoes boil you can make the dressing. Wash and chop the herbs, grate the cheese and zest the lemon. Add the dressing ingredients to a small bowl. Stir together well until combined.
    ½ tbsp salt, 1/3 cup sour cream, ¼ cup mayonnaise, ¼ cup plain Greek yogurt, 1 ½ tsp onion powder, 1 tbsp fresh dill, ½ tbsp parmesan, ½ tbsp fresh parsley, ½ tbsp chives, ½ tsp salt, ¼ tsp ground black pepper, ½ lemon zest and juice
  • Once the potatoes are cooked through – poke a fork through one of the pieces to make sure it goes through the center with minimal resistance – drain them and let cool for 15 minutes or so. You want to make sure the potatoes are not overcooked.
  • Once cooled, add the potatoes to a medium bowl, top with the dressing and toss to coat.
  • Serve cold with your favourite mains, as an appetizer or on its own as a snack.

Notes

Note 1: I like to use either Yukon gold potatoes or red potatoes for this recipe. The red potatoes give it a beautiful colour!
