Potato Salad With Sour Cream And Scallions Recipes

Steps:

• In a large pot, cover potatoes with salted water. Bring to a boil; reduce heat. Simmer until potatoes are tender when pierced with the tip of a sharp paring knife, 12 to 15 minutes. Drain well.
• Meanwhile, in a large bowl, whisk together sour cream and mayonnaise; add warm potatoes, and gently fold to combine. Season with salt and pepper. Cover; refrigerate at least 1 hour and up to 1 day.
• To serve, season salad again with salt and pepper, if needed; fold in scallions. Garnish with bacon and more scallions, if desired.

Steps:

• In a wide skillet, add the scallions, drizzle with 2 tablespoons of the olive oil, sprinkle with salt and cook over high heat on each side until charred and soft, about 2 minutes on each side.
• Chop the cooked scallions and place them in a medium bowl. Grate the clove of garlic over the scallions. The heat from the scallions will mellow out the garlic.
• Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the canola oil and when it shimmers, add the quartered potatoes, season with salt and pepper, and cook, tossing the potatoes every 2 minutes to make sure they brown on all sides, for 7 to 10 minutes total.
• While the potatoes are browning, remove the rind of the lemon with a vegetable peeler, making sure to leave out the white pith of the lemon peel. Finely mince the lemon zest and reserve for garnish.
• Combine 3/4 cup of the sour cream, the juice of the lemon and half of the chopped bunch of chives in a small bowl.
• For the dressing, combine the remaining 1/4 cup of the sour cream with the white wine vinegar and charred-scallion-and-garlic mixture in a large bowl. Season with salt and pepper and stream in 1/4 cup of the olive oil, whisking continuously to create a creamy relish-like dressing.
• Add the crispy potatoes to the dressing and toss to coat.
• Spread the lemony sour-cream-and-chives mixture on a large plate, place the dressed potatoes on top and garnish with the remaining half bunch of chopped chives and the lemon zest and Parmesan cheese.
• Enjoy.

Steps:

• Peel potatoes and cut into 1-inch chunks. Mix with scallions in a serving bowl. In a separate bowl combine sour cream, mayonnaise, mustard, salt, pepper and vinegar. Pour dressing over potatoes and toss to coat.

Steps:

• Bring a medium pot of salted water to a boil over medium heat. Add potatoes and cook for 8 minutes or until slightly tender. Strain, place in large bowl and let cool until slightly warm.
• While potatoes are cooking, set up grill or grill pan for direct cooking over medium heat. Place scallions on hot oiled grill and cook for 4 minutes. Transfer to a cutting board and set aside.
• To the bowl with the potatoes add mayonnaise, sour cream, mustard, garlic, salt and pepper and gently mix until well blended and potatoes are coated. Slice grilled scallions and mix into the potatoes. Serve immediately or keep covered in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
