Ingredients
Potatoes
- 3 pounds small red potatoes or Yukon Gold or other waxy potatoes, cut in quarters or bite-size pieces
Vinaigrette
- ¼ cup dry white wine or chicken stock
- ⅓ cup extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice or bottled lemon juice
- 1-2 shallots peeled and minced (or green onions—scallions—white and tender green parts only, sliced and added to potatoes)
- 1 clove garlic minced
- pepper to taste and salt to taste, if desired
Toppings
- 2 tablespoons capers drained
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh basil
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley flatleaf or curly
Instructions
- Boil the potatoes in a pot of water until tender but not soft (about 15-20 minutes).
- Drain and set aside to cool.
- Put all the vinaigrette ingredients in a small deep bowl and whisk until combined. Or put them in a covered jar and shake them up to combine. Note: If you are using green onions (scallions) instead of shallots, do not add them to the vinaigrette. Add them directly to the cooling potatoes.
- Pour the vinaigrette over potatoes and stir to cover.
- Add capers, basil and parsley and stir gently.
- Serve warm or chilled.
