Ingredients
- 1.5 lbs Small new potatoes
- 0.75 lbs Green beans
- 0.5 units Red onion
- 0.25 cups Fresh parsley
- 0.25 cups Extra-virgin olive oil
- 2 tbsp Red wine vinegar
- 2 tsp Dijon mustard
- 1 tsp Honey
- 1 tsp Salt
- 0.5 tsp Black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Wash and scrub the new potatoes. Cut them into halves or quarters, depending on their size, ensuring all pieces are roughly the same size for even cooking.
Step 2
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the potatoes and cook for 10-12 minutes, or until fork-tender. Drain and set aside to cool slightly.
Step 3
While the potatoes are cooking, trim the ends of the green beans and cut them into 2-inch pieces.
Step 4
Blanch the green beans by boiling them in salted water for 2-3 minutes, until bright green and tender-crisp. Transfer immediately to an ice water bath to stop the cooking process. Drain and set aside.
Step 5
Thinly slice the red onion and roughly chop the fresh parsley. Set aside.
Step 6
In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, red wine vinegar, Dijon mustard, honey, salt, and black pepper to make the vinaigrette.
Step 7
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked potatoes, blanched green beans, red onion, and parsley.
Step 8
Pour the vinaigrette over the salad and gently toss with a large spoon or your hands until the vegetables are evenly coated.
Step 9
Taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper, if needed.
Step 10
Serve immediately at room temperature or chill in the refrigerator for 1-2 hours before serving for a cold salad. Enjoy!
