Ingredients

• 500 grams baby potatoes
• 2 pieces avocado
• 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
• 2 tablespoons lemon juice
• 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
• 1 clove garlic
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley
• 2 pieces green onions
• 0.5 teaspoons salt
• 0.25 teaspoons black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Wash the baby potatoes thoroughly and place them in a large pot. Cover the potatoes with water and add a pinch of salt. Bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat and cook the potatoes for 15-20 minutes, or until they are fork-tender.

Step 2

While the potatoes are cooking, prepare the dressing. In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, minced garlic (finely minced), salt, and black pepper. Set aside.

Step 3

Chop the fresh parsley and green onions into small pieces, and set aside for garnish.

Step 4

Once the potatoes are cooked, drain them and let them cool for 5 minutes until they are warm but safe to handle. Cut the potatoes into halves or quarters, depending on their size.

Step 5

Cut the avocados in half, remove the pits, and scoop the flesh out with a spoon. Slice each avocado into cubes or wedges.

Step 6

In a large mixing bowl, combine the warm potato pieces and avocado slices. Pour the dressing over the mixture and gently toss to coat, being careful not to mash the avocado.

Step 7

Sprinkle the chopped parsley and green onions over the salad for added freshness and garnish. Serve warm.
