A delightful potato salad featuring creamy Yukon Gold potatoes mingled with a tangy dressing and vibrant vegetables that elevate any gathering.
Ingredients
Scale
- 3 lbs Yukon Gold potatoes (peeled and cubed)
- 1/2 cup red onion (diced, plus extra rings for garnish)
- 1/3 cup green onions (sliced)
- 2 tbsp capers (drained and rinsed)
- 3/4 cup mayonnaise
- 1/4 cup plain full-fat Greek yogurt
- 1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
- 1 clove garlic (finely grated)
- 1/2 tsp dried oregano
- Salt and black pepper (to taste)
Instructions
- Prepare the Potatoes: In a large pot, bring salted water to a boil. Add the peeled and cubed Yukon Gold potatoes, cooking until they are fork-tender, about 15-20 minutes. Drain the potatoes and let them cool.
- Combine the Salad Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, gently mix the cooled potatoes, diced red onion, sliced green onions, and capers.
- Create the Dressing: In a separate bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, Greek yogurt, lemon juice, grated garlic, and oregano. Season with salt and black pepper.
- Dress the Salad: Pour the dressing over the potato mixture and use a spatula to gently fold the ingredients, ensuring each potato is covered.
- Taste and Chill: Adjust seasoning as needed, cover with plastic wrap, and chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving.
Notes
This salad can be made a day in advance for deeper flavor. Consider using an air fryer for crispy potatoes.
