Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb Baby Dutch Yellow potatoes, washed and quartered
  • 1 1/2 tbsp schmaltz (store-bought is fine)
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 3 small shallots, finely diced
  • 2 tsp Dijon mustard
  • 2 tsp grainy mustard
  • 1 tsp white sugar
  • 1 tsp apple cider vinegar
  • Kosher salt, to taste
  • 3 tbsp finely chopped parsley

Instructions

  1. Place the potatoes in a pot and cover with cold water at least 2 inches above the potatoes. Add a generous amount of kosher salt.
  2. Bring to a boil, then immediately set a 4-minute timer. Do not boil longer than 4 minutes to avoid overcooking.
  3. Drain the potatoes and return them to the hot pot to steam dry for a few minutes.
  4. In a large frying or sautรฉ pan, heat schmaltz and olive oil over medium heat.
  5. Add the diced shallots and sautรฉ until soft and translucent, about 3 minutes.
  6. Turn off the heat. Stir in the Dijon mustard, grainy mustard, sugar, and apple cider vinegar until well combined.
  7. Add the steamed potatoes and season generously with kosher salt. Toss until evenly coated.
  8. Stir in the chopped parsley, mix, and serve warm.

Notes

  • Schmaltz adds incredible depth and richnessโ€”if unavailable, substitute with more olive oil or butter.
  • Best served warm, but leftovers are tasty cold too.
  • Great alongside roasted meats or as part of a BBQ spread.
