How to Make Roasted Potato Salad

Most potato salads are made by boiling potatoes. But not this one! Roasting the potatoes gives them a gorgeous, caramelized flavor and tender texture. It all starts with slicing the potatoes and coating them with avocado oil, salt, and pepper for flavor. While the potatoes are roasting, we make the sauce. Hummus is the creamy, fiber-rich base, lemon juice adds acidity, garlic gives it zing, and fresh or dried dill pairs perfectly with both the lemon in the sauce and with the potatoes. Next we add just enough water to turn the mixture into a pourable sauce that’s perfect for coating the potatoes, but not so runny that it dilutes the flavors or makes the salad soggy. While waiting for the potatoes to cook, there’s enough time to clean up your kitchen, and even learn about the origins of hummus (a.k.a. one of our favorite ingredients ever)! Once the potatoes are golden brown, tender, and slightly cooled, it’s time to coat them in the zesty garlic dill sauce and enjoy! We hope you LOVE this roasted potato salad!
