Ingredients

• 500 grams Baby potatoes
• 200 grams Green beans
• 250 grams Cherry tomatoes
• 1 small Red onion
• 4 tablespoons Olive oil
• 2 tablespoons Red wine vinegar
• 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
• 1 clove Garlic
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper

Directions

Step 1

1. Wash the baby potatoes and place them in a pot. Cover them with water, add a pinch of salt, and bring to a boil. Cook for about 15-20 minutes, or until fork-tender. Drain and let them cool slightly.

Step 2

2. While the potatoes cook, trim the ends off the green beans. Bring a small pot of water to a boil. Add the green beans and blanch them for 2-3 minutes until tender-crisp. Immediately transfer to a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process, then drain and pat dry.

Step 3

3. Slice the cherry tomatoes in half and set aside. Thinly slice the red onion and soak it in cold water for 5 minutes to mellow its flavor, then drain and pat dry.

Step 4

4. For the vinaigrette, whisk together olive oil, red wine vinegar, Dijon mustard, minced garlic, chopped parsley, salt, and black pepper in a small bowl until well combined.

Step 5

5. Cut the cooked potatoes into bite-sized pieces. In a large mixing bowl, combine the potatoes, green beans, cherry tomatoes, and red onion.

Step 6

6. Pour the dressing over the salad and gently toss to coat all the ingredients evenly.

Step 7

7. Taste and adjust seasoning with more salt or pepper if needed.

Step 8
