Christmas Potato Salad

Prep Time 5 minutes
Cook Time 20 minutes
Total Time 30 minutes
Servings 8

Ingredients

  • 1.5 kg new Potatoes washed
  • 1 cup whole egg mayonnaise
  • 2 bunches of Asparagus or green beans
  • 250 grams Sundried tomatoes sliced
  • 2 tablespoons Chives chopped
  • ½ cup Italian Flatleaf Parsley chopped

Instructions

  1. Look over the potatoes and cut any super large ones in half.
  2. Cook the potatoes in your Biroix full of boiling salted water until tender. Around 15 – 20 minutes.
  3. Drain and set aside.
  4. If using green beans, cut the top and bottoms off them. If using asparagus, break off the woody end and slice the end to tidy it up. Cut asparagus in around 3 pieces, if you have large ones cut through the middle in half too.
  5. To blanch your greens, have your Biroix on the heat and water boiling and add the greens, cook for around 90 seconds until bright green, drain and run under cold water to stop the cooking process.
  6. Once the potatoes are cool, mix with chives, sun dried tomatoes, mayonnaise. Season with salt and pepper. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. Add the herbs, reserving a little to sprinkle on the top as garnish.
  7. Serve.

Recipe Notes

I like to use a waxy potato as they hold their shape nicely in a salad situation. For example, Perlas or Nadine.
