Instructions
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F and line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the quartered yukon gold potatoes, the quartered baby red potatoes, 1 tbsp. olive oil, sea salt, and ground black pepper, and toss to coat.
Lay out the seasoned potatoes over the rimmed baking sheet in a single layer.
Place in the oven and roast, tossing once halfway through, until the potatoes are nicely browned and cooked through, about 25-30 minutes.
Then, remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly.
While the potatoes are roasting, heat remaining ½ tbsp. of olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat.
Add the sliced shallots and cook, stirring frequently, until softened and brown, about 4-6 minutes.
Add the minced garlic and cook an additional minute. Then, remove from the heat.
In a mixing bowl, combine the plain greek yogurt, whole grain mustard, and red wine vinegar and stir to mix well.
Add the roasted potatoes to a large mixing bowl, followed by the greek yogurt mixture, the sauteed shallot and garlic, and sliced green onions. Gently toss to coat.
Notes
Baby red potatoes, fingerling, or Yukon gold work best for roasting—they hold their shape and get perfectly crispy edges while staying creamy inside.
Cut potatoes into even-sized chunks for uniform roasting.
Use Greek yogurt instead of mayo or a light olive oil vinaigrette for a lighter option.
