Crushed New Potato, Pea & Dill Salad

Serves 4

This tasty recipe uses dill and parsley but you can substitute any herbs you fancy.

Ingredients

  • 750g new potatoes
  • 200g fresh or frozen peas
  • 3 spring onions, finely sliced
  • Small bunch dill, roughly chopped
  • Small handful parsley, roughly chopped

Dressing

  • 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1 tsp honey
  • Salt and black pepper

Method

  1. Put the new potatoes in a large pan of salted water and bring to the boil.
  2. Simmer for 15–20 minutes, or until tender when pierced with a knife.
  3. Add the peas for the final 2 minutes of cooking.
  4. Drain well and allow to steam dry for a minute.
  5. Tip the potatoes onto a board and lightly crush each one with the back of a
    spoon. You want them broken open, not mashed.
  6. In a large bowl whisk together the olive oil, mustard, lemon juice, honey, a
    good pinch of salt and plenty of black pepper.
  7. Add the warm potatoes and peas to the dressing and toss gently so the
    potatoes absorb the flavours.
  8. Fold through the spring onions, dill and parsley.
  9. Taste and adjust the seasoning. Serve warm or at room temperature.
