serves 6
ingredients
- 3 lbs red mini potatoes, washed and cut in half
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1/2 tsp kosher salt
- 1/2 tsp freshly ground black pepper
- 3/4 lb green beans, trimmed, cut in half
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tbsp balsamic vinegar
- 1 tsp Dijon mustard
- 1/2 tsp honey
- 1/4 tsp kosher salt
- 1/4 tsp freshly ground black pepper
- 3 tbsp chopped fresh basil
directions
- Preheat oven to 375ºF. In a large bowl, toss potatoes with olive oil, salt and pepper. Place on a parchment- lined baking sheet and bake 45 minutes, until golden, stirring potatoes occasionally.
- While potatoes are cooking, bring a pot of water to a boil. Add beans, cooking on low heat until tender crisp, 3-4 minutes. Drain and rinse under cold water to stop cooking.
- For the vinaigrette, in a small bowl, whisk olive oil, balsamic vinegar, Dijon mustard, honey, salt and pepper.
- To assemble, in a large bowl, combine roasted potatoes, green beans and basil. Toss to coat with dressing.
“High fashion has the shelf life of potato salad. And when past its prime, it is similarly deadly.”
