Baby Potato Salad Recipe

This irresistible Baby Potato Salad recipe is a family favorite! Inspired by a classic, this easy and flavorful recipe features tender baby potatoes, vibrant peas, and a zesty herb dressing. Perfect for a light lunch, side dish, or potluck contribution. We used Kipfler potatoes, but small red Ruby Lou or Royal Blue potatoes work equally well. Garnished with fresh spring onions for an extra pop of freshness!

How to Make Baby Potato Salad

  1. Wash and scrub 1 lb baby potatoes (Kipfler, Ruby Lou, or Royal Blue). Steam or boil until tender, about 15-20 minutes. Keep warm.
  2. Hard-boil 3 large eggs for 5 minutes. Immediately transfer to an ice bath to stop cooking. Peel and chop.
  3. Blanch 1 cup frozen peas in boiling water for 2 minutes. Drain and rinse under cold water to stop cooking.
  4. Combine 1/4 cup fresh herbs (parsley, chives, and thyme), 1/4 cup pine nuts, 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese, 1/4 cup olive oil, 1 clove minced garlic, and 1 tablespoon lemon juice in a food processor. Pulse until coarsely chopped but still with texture.
  5. Cut the warm potatoes into bite-sized chunks. Gently fold in the peas and the herb dressing. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Garnish with chopped spring onions and serve warm or at room temperature.
