Crispy Crunchy Potato Salad Recipe | Summer Recipe

This crispy crunchy potato salad is everything you want from a summer side dish: golden, smoky potatoes with crisp edges, tossed through a creamy, tangy dressing with fresh cucumber, red onion and pepper for plenty of crunch.

It is lighter than a classic potato salad thanks to reduced-fat mayo and fat-free Greek yoghurt, but still tastes creamy, fresh and satisfying. Perfect for BBQs, picnics, lunch prep or serving alongside grilled chicken, burgers, fish or salad bowls.

Crispy potato salad has been going viral all over social media, and it is easy to see why. It takes a classic creamy potato salad and gives it a delicious twist with golden, crunchy smashed potatoes instead of the usual boiled ones.

When I shared my version, my video went viral too, and so many people loved the idea of combining crispy, smoky potatoes with a fresh, creamy, crunchy salad mix. It is one of those recipes that looks amazing, tastes even better, and is perfect for sharing.

For extra crunch, make sure the potatoes are well spaced out on the tray so they roast instead of steam.

Letting the potatoes cool slightly before mixing them into the dressing helps keep the salad creamy without becoming too soft.

This is best served fresh, but leftovers can be stored in the fridge for up to 2 days. The potatoes will soften a little, but the flavour will still be delicious.

This crispy, crunchy potato salad is perfect with BBQ food, roasted chicken, grilled halloumi, salmon, burgers or as part of a buffet spread. It also makes a great lunch with some extra protein on the side.
