An Unconventional Christmas Eve Menu: Fresh Potato Salad

Step-by-step method

Let’s cook

At a glance

This fresh potato salad swaps out traditional root vegetables for a colorful frozen veggie mix with peppers, peas, broccoli, and red onion, all tossed in a light mustard-yogurt dressing. You'll boil potatoes, quickly sauté the veggies to keep them crisp and vibrant, then combine everything while it's still lukewarm—the trickiest part is getting the temperature just right since this salad is best enjoyed warm, not cold or piping hot.

  1. 1/3

    Boil the potatoes and heat the pan

    Peel and chop the potatoes, then boil them in salted water. Get a large, deep pan ready — for this kind of thing I like to use my trusty wok.

  2. 2/3

    Sauté the vegetables

    Melt the butter in the pan and sauté the shallot, cut into fairly large pieces, until translucent. Then add the thawed vegetables. Season with salt and pepper, and cook briefly so the vegetables keep their colour and stay crisp.

    Mix everything with the dressing

    Combine the buttery vegetables with the cooked potatoes. Let the mixture cool slightly, but keep it lukewarm rather than cold — this salad is best served lukewarm, not chilled and not hot. Stir the mustard into the yoghurt and mix it through the salad.

About this recipe

This is one seriously good salad. Like a classic potato salad, its base is potatoes and vegetables — except here I've swapped the usual root veg for my favourite frozen Nowaco vegetable mix. The blend, called "side dish mix," includes yellow pepper, carrot, sugar snap peas, broccoli and red onion — a fantastic combination for a salad. I finished the whole thing off with a light dressing, and the whole family loved it!
