Method

  1. Cook the potatoes in a pan of boiling salted water for 12-15 mins until just tender. Meanwhile, in a small bowl, whisk the mustard with the lemon zest and juice, and slowly whisk in the oil to form a smooth emulsion. Season to taste.
  2. Drain the potatoes and tip into a large bowl. Drizzle over the dressing and gently mix. Leave to stand for 15 mins to allow the potatoes to absorb the flavours. To serve, stir the parsley and spring onions into the potatoes. Season to taste and serve immediately.

    This recipe was brilliant, really made the potatoes a wee bit special - I served them with the Roast Chicken stuffed with cous cous, apricots and pine nuts at a dinner party for 9 girls. It was ideal as I was able to make up the dressing in advance and have it sitting, then when the potatoes were ready it was poured over, tossed and ready to serve in a warm bowl, saving me having to be away from the table too long.

    Very nice! I served this with hot smoked salmon which went really well with the lemony dressing. The kids loved it.
