Tarragon Lamb Potato Salad
- 2 lbs red new potatoes
- 2 tablespoons tarragon vinegar
- salt, to taste
- 1 cup cubed well-trimmed roasted cooked lamb (1/2-inch cubes)
- 2 tablespoons minced shallots
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh tarragon (or 1 teaspoon dried tarragon, crumbled)
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
- 2 tablespoons tarragon vinegar
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- salt, to taste
- fresh ground pepper, to taste
- 6 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- Use a pan with a steamer basket; add water to the pan to reach just below the basket; bring water to a boil; add potatoes to the basket (they should fit in a single layer; if you have more than one layer, steam the potatoes in batches; if the potatoes are very large, cut them in half and steam them cut-side down).
- Cover the pan and steam until done, checking to make sure the water does not boil away (small potatoes--15 minutes; larger potatoes--18-20 minutes).
- When done, transfer potatoes to a colander to drain; remove basket and pour out water from pan.
- Return potatoes to the warm pan; toss over low heat to dry them.
- When potatoes are cool enough to handle, peel if desired, then cut into 1/2-inch cubes.
- Place the cubed potatoes in a large bowl; sprinkle with vinegar and salt while still warm.
- Add in the lamb.
- To make the dressing: mix together the first 7 dressing ingredients in a small bowl.
- Whisk in the olive oil; pour the dressing over the potato-lamb mixture.
- Toss gently but mix thoroughly.
- Serve immediately.
