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.

Tips:
- Use the right potatoes: Waxy potatoes, such as Yukon Gold or Red Bliss, hold their shape better than starchy potatoes, such as Russets, and are less likely to fall apart when mixed with the dressing.
- Boil the potatoes until they are just tender: Overcooked potatoes will become mushy when mixed with the dressing.
- Cool the potatoes completely before adding the dressing: This will help to prevent the dressing from becoming watery.
- Use a light hand when mixing the potatoes with the dressing: Overmixing will cause the potatoes to break down and become mushy.
- Add the celery, onion, and hard-boiled eggs just before serving: This will help to prevent them from becoming limp and soggy.
- Season the potato salad to taste: Add salt, pepper, and other seasonings to taste, until the potato salad is flavorful and well-balanced.
- Chill the potato salad before serving: This will help to develop the flavors and make the potato salad more refreshing.
