Ingredients
Scale
Potatoes
- 2 lbs potatoes, peeled and cut into bite-sized chunks
Olive Oil and Herbs
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- Salt and black pepper to taste
Dressing
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon white wine vinegar
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 small garlic clove, minced
- Salt and black pepper to taste
Instructions
- Prepare the Potatoes: Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Peel and cut the potatoes into bite-sized chunks to ensure even cooking and crispiness.
- Roast the Potatoes: In a large bowl, toss the potato chunks with 3 tablespoons of olive oil, dried rosemary, dried thyme, salt, and black pepper. Spread them evenly on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Roast in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, turning halfway through, until the potatoes are golden brown and crispy on the outside and tender inside.
- Prepare the Dressing: While the potatoes are roasting, whisk together olive oil, white wine vinegar, Dijon mustard, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper in a small bowl until well combined.
- Combine and Toss: Once the potatoes are roasted and slightly cooled, place them in a large bowl. Pour the dressing over the potatoes and gently toss to coat evenly, allowing the flavors to meld together.
- Serve: Serve the crispy potato salad warm or at room temperature as a flavorful side dish to your favorite mains.
Notes
- Use waxy or all-purpose potatoes like Yukon Gold or red potatoes for the best texture.
- You can add fresh herbs such as parsley or chives to enhance freshness.
- For extra crispiness, avoid overcrowding the baking sheet when roasting the potatoes.
- The salad can be served warm or chilled according to your preference.
- If you prefer, substitute white wine vinegar with apple cider vinegar or lemon juice for a different tang.
