Ingredients
- 800 g Baby potatoes
- 200 g Greek yogurt, plain
- 2 tbsp Extra virgin olive oil
- 2 tbsp Lemon juice, freshly squeezed
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 3 tbsp Fresh dill, chopped
- 2 tbsp Fresh parsley, chopped
- 2 stalks Green onions, finely sliced
- 1 tsp Salt
- 0.5 tsp Black pepper, freshly ground
- 50 g Optional: Crumbled feta cheese for topping
Directions
Step 1
Wash the baby potatoes thoroughly and cut any larger ones in half to ensure even cooking.
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.
Step 3
Once the water reaches a boil, reduce the heat to medium and let the potatoes simmer for approximately 15-20 minutes, or until they are tender when pierced with a fork.
Step 4
While the potatoes are cooking, prepare the herby garlic yogurt dressing. In a medium bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, extra virgin olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, chopped dill, parsley, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until smooth and uniform.
Step 5
When the potatoes are tender, drain them and let them cool slightly for a few minutes. If desired, peel the potatoes, or leave the skins on for added texture.
Step 6
Transfer the warm potatoes to a large mixing bowl. Add the herby garlic yogurt dressing and gently toss until the potatoes are well coated.
Step 7
Fold in the sliced green onions and adjust seasoning with more salt and pepper if needed.
Step 8
Optional: Sprinkle crumbled feta cheese on top for extra flavor.
Step 9
Serve immediately at room temperature, or refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to serve chilled. Enjoy!
