  • 2 pounds baby potatoes (mini yellow potatoes)
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil, divided
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper

For the Herbed Yogurt Dressing:

  • 3/4 cup Greek yogurt
  • 1/2 cup kewpie mayonnaise (or regular mayo)
  • 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
  • 1/2 lemon, juiced
  • 1 garlic clove, minced
  • 1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 1 dill pickle, finely chopped

  • 1–2 scallions for garnish, optional

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven: Preheat the oven to 425°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Cook the potatoes: Boil the baby potatoes until fork-tender, then smash each potato, brush with olive oil, season with salt and pepper, and roast until crispy.
  3. Prepare the dressing: Whisk together olive oil, Greek yogurt, mayo, Dijon, lemon juice, garlic, and parsley. Stir in chopped pickle and shallot, season with salt and pepper, and refrigerate.
  4. Combine and serve: Toss the roasted potatoes with the herbed yogurt dressing, garnish with scallions and crispy potato bits, and serve warm.

Notes

  • You can customize the dressing by adding herbs like dill or chives for extra flavor.
  • To make this salad ahead, roast the potatoes and prepare the dressing separately, then combine just before serving for the best texture.
