Warm New Potato and Pea Salad pin

This is a quick and easy salad that only takes 30 minutes to put together and is served warm.  I served it up with some Grilled Ham Steaks and it was a wonderful side.

I was only cooking for my family so I made 4 servings however this recipe is easily doubled if you are having a crowd.

New Potato and Pea Salad

New Potato and Pea Salad

Tender baby potatoes and freshly shelled peas wrapped in a mustard seed dressing. Perfect side dish at your next BBQ.
Prep time: 10 MinCook time: 20 MinTotal time: 30 Min

Ingredients

  • 1 lb. new potatoes, I used assorted colors
  • 3/4 c. shelled fresh peas or frozen 
  • 3/4 t. mustard seeds
  • 3 T. plain Greek yogurt
  • 2 t. dijon mustard
  • 1/2 small shallot, minced
  • salt and pepper, to taste
  • 2 T. chopped chives

Instructions

  1. Place potatoes in a large pot of salted water over high heat and bring to a boil.  Cook until almost tender, about 20 minutes.  Add the peas to the potatoes and cook until tender, about another 5 minutes, if using fresh.
  2. While potatoes are boiling, toast the mustard seeds in a small dry skillet over medium heat until they begin to pop.  Transfer to a bowl and whisk in the yogurt, mustard, shallots, salt and pepper.  Set aside.
  3. Drain and transfer potatoes and peas to a large bowl.  Using a wooden spoon gently crush the potatoes into large chunks.  Pour the dressing over the potatoes and peas, add the chives and gently fold together.  Serve immediately.
