Spring potato salad

There is another available recipe for potato salad- this variation has become a favorite for summer lunch- and you cook the potatoes the day before for best results. Serve with the breaded chicken, baked salmon, slices of  roast beef or fried Danish meatballs

800 g new potatoes, cooked

10 radises. sliced or cut into small pieces

5 cm deseeded cucumber in small pieces

good handful of chives, cut 

Optional small sping onion in slices

handful of cut dill.

Optional a few chipotle chili flakes 

Ingredients

Marinade:

1/2 tsp cumin

1/2 tsp coriander

1 tbsp mayonnaise

3-4 tbsp Greek Youghurt

2 tbsp Cream fraise- lactose free fresh kaas

 

1 tbsp freshly sqeezed lemon juice

 

 

Instructions

Step 1

Cook the potatoes the day before- keep cool and pad dry when starting the potato salad

 

Step 2

Mix the ingredients for the marinade in the bottom of your serving dish- salt and pepper to taste

Step 3

Add sliced potatoes, radishes, dill, chives and spring onions (if using) to the marinade. Coat well and make sure your potatoes are not being mashed.

Step 4

Decorate with the cucumber slices, additional dill and radishes. Leave cold to pick up taste for 20 minutes and serve.

Tips

 I leave the cucumber pieces to be decoration, mostly because I really do not like the potato salad to become watery. This is also the reason that the yogurt and lemon juice can be measured; however, do use the opportunity to create a thick marinade that coats the potatoes and prevents them from swimming in ‘sauce’. 

You can add loads of other herbs like flat-leafed parsley, oregano or mint. Just keep the combination simple. If your family do not like dill, for example, try parsley

You can also add a clove of garlic to the marinade or even 1/2 teaspoon of mustard for more flavor- then leave out the chili flakes though. You really wnat a simple marinade to highlight the new potatoes and radishes.
