Ingredients
- 2 pounds baby potatoes
- 1 cup frozen peas
- 1 cup mayonnaise
- 0.5 cup sour cream
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons fresh dill (chopped)
- 3 stalks green onions (thinly sliced)
Directions
Step 1
Wash the baby potatoes thoroughly and cut them into bite-sized pieces, keeping the skin on for added texture and flavor.
Step 2
Place the potatoes in a large pot and cover them with water. Add a pinch of salt and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce the heat to a simmer and cook for 12-15 minutes, or until the potatoes are fork-tender.
Step 3
While the potatoes are cooking, place the frozen peas in a colander. When the potatoes are finished cooking, drain them over the peas to thaw them using the hot water.
Step 4
Set the potatoes and peas aside to cool to room temperature.
Step 5
In a large mixing bowl, combine the mayonnaise, sour cream, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Whisk until smooth and creamy.
Step 6
Add the cooled potatoes and peas to the dressing. Toss gently to coat everything evenly.
Step 7
Fold in the chopped dill and sliced green onions for a burst of freshness.
Step 8
Cover the potato salad and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld together.
Step 9
Serve chilled as a side dish and garnish with additional dill or green onions if desired.
