SPRING ASPARAGUS, HAM AND POTATO SALAD - HONEY MUSTARD DRESSING



Spring Asparagus, Ham and Potato Salad - Honey Mustard Dressing image

A light, fresh and very tasty potato salad, which is more of a meal than a side dish! I made this up when I had a few spears of fresh asparagus left, some boiled potatoes and some honey roast ham in the fridge! This recipe/idea is for two people - but it can be increased with ease, hence my listing of the ingredients in numbers, rather than in ounces or grammes! The dressing can be made ahead......and, hopefully it will be warm enough to sit outside and soak up the spring or early summer sun......c'est Parfait!

Tips:

  • Choose the right asparagus. Look for asparagus spears that are firm and have tightly closed tips. Avoid spears that are limp or have brown spots.
  • Prepare the asparagus properly. Snap off the tough ends of the asparagus spears. You can do this by bending the spear until it snaps naturally, or you can use a knife to cut off the ends.
  • Don't overcook the asparagus. Asparagus should be cooked until it is tender-crisp. Overcooked asparagus will be mushy and lose its flavor.
  • Use a good quality honey mustard dressing. A good honey mustard dressing will have a balance of sweet and tangy flavors. You can use a store-bought dressing or make your own.
  • Serve the asparagus immediately. Asparagus is best served immediately after it is cooked. This will help to preserve its flavor and texture.

Conclusion:

Honey mustard asparagus is a delicious and easy-to-make side dish. It is perfect for a weeknight meal or a special occasion. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a dish that is both flavorful and healthy.
