10 MINUTE LOW-FAT POTATO SALAD
Potato salad from scratch in just 10 minutes, and it's low fat too. I love the creamy taste of the dressing, and the olives compliment the mustards. This can easily be double to accommodate a larger family, however it would take about 5 minutes longer to prepare.

Steps:
- Cut the potatoes into 2.5-3cm chunks (step 1), so that they are all the same size and will cook evenly. Put them in a pan of boiling water. Once the water has returned to the boil, lower the heat slightly and cook for about 10 mins or until just cooked and still keeping their shape. Tip them into a colander to drain well, then transfer to a large bowl.
- While the potatoes are cooking, mix together the mayonnaise, yogurt, crème fraîche, mustard and milk. Add the spring onions, then most of the chives and tarragon to the potatoes (step 2). Season with pepper and a pinch of salt.
- Spoon the dressing over the potatoes while they are still warm (step 3), then toss gently together so that they are well coated but don't break up. Tip the potato salad into a serving bowl and scatter over the remaining chives and tarragon. Serve cold - but the flavour is best if not served straight from the fridge.

- Choose the right potatoes: Waxy potatoes, such as red potatoes or new potatoes, are best for potato salad because they hold their shape well and don't get too mushy when cooked.
- Cook the potatoes properly: Boil the potatoes in salted water until they are tender but still firm. Do not overcook them, or they will become mushy.
- Cool the potatoes before assembling the salad: This will help to prevent the salad from becoming watery.
- Use fresh, high-quality ingredients: The better the ingredients you use, the better the potato salad will taste.
- Don't be afraid to experiment: There are many different ways to make potato salad. Feel free to add your own favorite ingredients or variations to create a salad that you love.
