Ingredients
3 Large Idaho potatoes, unpeeled and thinly sliced
½ cup Fresh dill, chopped
¼ cup Rice wine vinegar
1½ tablespoon Dijon mustard
½ teaspoon Salt
¼ cup Canola oil, grapeseed oil, rice bran oil, or vegetable oil
1 Large cucumber, unpeeled and thinly sliced
Directions
Arrange the potato slices in a microwave-safe 9-inch square baking dish. Cover with microwave-safe plastic wrap and heat at HIGH power for 9 to 11 minutes until the potatoes are tender, stirring gently every 3 minutes.
While the potatoes cook, combine the fresh dill, oil, rice wine vinegar, Dijon mustard, and salt in a small jar with a tight-fitting lid. Seal the jar and shake vigorously for 30 seconds until well combined.
Once the potatoes are cooked, pour the vinegar dressing over them. Cover the baking dish and transfer to the refrigerator until thoroughly chilled, at least 30 minutes.
Just before serving, gently fold the sliced cucumber into the chilled potato salad to combine. Serve cold.
Comments
All ingredients are immediately available at any Charlotte supermarket—potatoes, fresh dill, rice wine vinegar, Dijon mustard, and cucumber are standard stock at Harris Teeter, Food Lion, Kroger, and Walmart. The stated 20 minutes is optimistic if you're boiling potatoes from scratch; realistically, plan 35 to 40 minutes once you account for peeling and cutting, though a shortcut of using microwaveable potato packages would hit the stated time. Cost per serving runs roughly $1.50 to $2.00 driven by fresh dill (about $2 a bunch for what you'll use here) and decent potatoes, making it affordable for a weeknight. This is a light, no-fuss side that reheats fine in the fridge for lunches, though it's best eaten the same day or next day before the cucumber weeps too much.
