Ingredients
-
2
pounds new potatoes -
1
lemon -
1/4
cup extra-virgin olive oil -
1/4
cup thinly sliced spring onions, about 4 green onions -
1
tablespoon to 2 tablespoons chopped fresh tarragon, according to your taste -
4
ounces smoked or salt cured salmon -
1
pinch sea salt, to tase -
1
pinch freshly ground pepper, to taste -
1
drop crème fraîche or sour cream, serve on the side
Directions
1. Place the potatoes in a large pot of
water and bring to a boil. Cook, uncovered, until tender and easily
pierced through with a knife, about 20-25 minutes. Drain the cooked
potatoes in a colander, cover with a dishtowel, and allow to steam
for 5-10 minutes.
2. Meanwhile, make the vinaigrette by
grating zest from ½ the lemon into a bowl. Add juice from ½ the
lemon, along with ½ teaspoon sea salt and a bit of freshly ground
black pepper. Slowly drizzle in the olive oil while continuously
whisking, until the vinaigrette is emulsified. Taste and adjust the
seasoning, adding more lemon juice if necessary.
3. Toss the cooked potatoes and spring
onion slices in the vinaigrette with half the chopped tarragon.
Arrange the potato salad on a platter. Slice the smoked salmon into
bite sized ribbons and place atop the potato salad. Sprinkle over
the rest of the chopped tarragon. Serve crème fraîche or sour cream
on the side.
