New Potato Salad with Asparagus is a delicious and healthy take on classic potato salad. And it makes a great side dish for any occasion. This salad features boiled new potatoes, pan-seared asparagus, crisp and juicy radishes, peppery arugula, and a tangy easy dressing. This recipe comes together quickly and delivers a flavorful dish that goes with almost anything.
You can boil the potatoes ahead and save some time. When ready to use, toss them with a drizzle of olive oil and lemon zest. To warm the potatoes up, just pop them into an oven preheated to 390 °F for 10 minutes. In this recipe, I like to use garlic-infused olive oil to sauté the asparagus. If you don’t have one, you can gently fry two smashed garlic cloves first and then use the infused oil to sear the asparagus.
To make the New Potato Salad with Asparagus, you will need the following ingredients:
In a bowl, combine 1 pound boiled potatoes with 2 teaspoons olive oil and 1 teaspoon lemon zest. Sprinkle with 1 tablespoon chopped mint if you wish.
Heat a non-stick pan on medium heat. When the pan is hot, add in 1 bunch chopped asparagus and immediately drizzle with 1 tablespoon garlic-infused olive oil. Cook, shaking often, for about 5-7 minutes or until slightly charred.
Remove the asparagus from the heat and transfer to a bowl. Toss with 2 tablespoons lemon juice and a sprinkle of salt.
In a large bowl, combine 4 tablespoons of runny plain yogurt, ½ a tablespoon wholegrain mustard, 1 teaspoon honey, 1 tablespoon lemon juice, 2 tablespoons chopped mint, 1 tablespoon chopped dill, 2 tablespoons chopped chives and stir.
Add the potatoes, asparagus, and 4 ounces sliced radishes to the bowl of dressing and gently stir.
On a serving plate, arrange 4 ounces arugula and top with the salad. Serve and enjoy!
