Day 12 of Making Easy Meals on Lazy Days: Crispy Smash Potato Salad - Oye Hoye Kamaal! 😍
Ingredients:
For Crispy Potatoes:
7-8 baby potatoes (or small red potatoes)
Salt and black pepper to taste
Pinch of Kashmiri red chili powder
1 tablespoon cooking oil
For Creamy Base Sauce:
4 tablespoons Greek yogurt (thick and creamy)
1 tablespoon mayonnaise
1 teaspoon honey
1 teaspoon hot sauce (sriracha or chili sauce)
1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
For Herb Potato Dressing:
1/2 cup fresh coriander, finely chopped
2-3 tablespoons walnuts, roughly chopped
1 tablespoon garlic, minced
1 teaspoon sesame seeds
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon chili flakes
1 teaspoon white vinegar
2-3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
Salt and pepper to taste
Method:
1. Cook potatoes: Wash baby potatoes thoroughly. In a pressure cooker, add potatoes with enough water to cover, add salt and 1 tsp oil. Cook for 2-3 whistles until tender. Let cool completely.
2. Prepare creamy base: In a bowl, whisk together Greek yogurt, mayonnaise, honey, hot sauce, and lemon juice until smooth and well combined. Taste and adjust seasoning. Set aside.
3. Make herb dressing: In another bowl, combine chopped coriander, chopped walnuts, minced garlic, sesame seeds, oregano, and chili flakes. Add vinegar and olive oil gradually while mixing. 4. 4. Season with salt and pepper. This creates a vibrant, chunky herb oil.
5. Prepare crispy potatoes: Preheat oven to 220°C (430°F). Once potatoes are cool, gently smash each potato with the back of a fork or spoon until they're flattened but still holding together. Drizzle with oil and season generously with salt, pepper, and Kashmiri red chili powder.
6.Bake: Arrange smashed potatoes on a baking tray lined with parchment paper. Bake for 15-20 minutes until edges are golden brown and crispy.
7. Assemble: While potatoes are still warm, gently mix them with the prepared herb dressing, ensuring each potato is well-coated.
8. Plate: Spread the creamy base sauce on your serving plate. Top with the herb-dressed crispy potatoes. Garnish with extra herbs if desired.
Pro Tips:
Let potatoes cool completely before smashing for better texture
Don't over-smash - you want them to hold together

Can be made ahead - just crisp up potatoes before serving
