6 Reviews of Grilled Baby New Potato Salad With French Green Beans and Mint (

From: Chef Kate

Never would I have thought of this as a Swedish recipe--but I love it! I love the combination of potatoes and green beans in a salad and the addition here of the mint and balsamic and olives--excellent! A great Tour discovery!

    This is one pretty salad! Perfect accompaniment to our Scandinavian steak! I halved the recipe and it worked just fine. I used new potatoes and also used the indoor grill. I had to use wild mint that is growing in my yard b/c I did not realise that it called for fresh mint until I was assembling. We really liked this and I would make this again! My friends daughter who is a vegetarian is making it for dinner tomorrow. Thanks Heather!

    This salad is delicious both to eat and to look at! Unfortunately I could only buy small-ish new potatoes and only one type I halved the recipe and finished the potatoes in a cast-iron pan on the stove (too rainy to go outside today). The dressing is great...love the freshness the mint adds. Thanks for a very impressive recipe!

    I had to try this after seeing the nice picture that Fairy Nuff had posted. DH and DD liked this. I have to admit, grilling those potatoes is a bit of work for a potato salad, but was kind of fun. I used my small indoor electric grill. I also don't know how to cut French style green beans (i've only done frozen), so I just cut them into 2-inch slices. And DH does not like the taste of Kalamata olivees with potatoes, so I used regular California black olives.

    This was a really good recipe, even though I made a few changes. For one, I made it the day before and then served it chilled. Also, I didn't have any mint and I hate olives so I left those two out. Still great!

    I think I have actually found a way I will eat green beans! This was just a fantastic salad, which I served hot. A little alteration for the middle of a Melbourne winter - I didn't have baby potatoes so used regular ones, peeled, chopped, boiled and then finished off in olive oil in the frypan til a bit brown and crispy...mmmm...then tossed through cooked beans and dressing. Thanks so much for the recipe, DH is delighted to think green beans will be on the menu!
