WARM BAKED POTATO SALAD

Warm Baked Potato Salad image

My husband and I had been eating nothing but baked and mashed potatoes (we live in Idaho), so I decided to try potatoes a different way. This warm salad is a HUGE hit with my sour cream-and-bacon-loving husband! It goes great with grilled chicken, steak, or burgers. (This recipe can certainly be modified to make a larger portion for larger groups!)

Categories main-dish

Time 1h45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

Ingredients

Olive oil
3/4 cup sweet Swedish mustard, divided
1/2-cup fresh dill, chopped, divided
4 (4-ounce) salmon fillet pieces, center cut (16 ounces)
Sea salt
Freshly cracked black pepper
1/4 pound unsalted butter, melted
3 phyllo pastry sheets
1 tablespoon caraway seed, toasted
1 leek, white part only, cut in rings
1 pound fingerling potatoes, roasted
1 cup creme fraiche
2 tablespoons dried currants
1 bunch mesclun greens
1-ounce salmon roe

Steps:

Mix together 2 tablespoons each olive oil, sweet mustard, and dill. Brush the mixture on the salmon fillets; season with salt and pepper. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F, brush a baking sheet with some melted butter. Unroll the phyllo dough and lay a sheet flat on a work surface. Brush the sheet with melted butter, then dust with some caraway and dill. Repeat with 2 more sheets of phyllo, stacking on top of each other. With a sharp knife or pizza cutter, remove 4-inches off the side of the sheets to form a square. Now, cut criss-cross to make 4 even squares. Transfer the squares to the baking sheet. Lay a piece of salmon in the center of each square and fold up the corners. As you work, keep the phyllo covered with a damp, not wet, towel to prevent drying out. Brush the pastry lightly with butter and bake for 25 minutes or until the fish is opaque. In the meantime prepare the potatoes.
Coat a saute pan with olive oil and cook the leeks until translucent. Cut the roasted potatoes in half lengthwise and place face down in the pan to give them color. Add creme fraiche, remaining mustard, dill, and currants. Cook over low heat until heated through, about 5 minutes.
To serve: divide the potato mixture among 4 shallow bowls, mound a handful of greens on top followed by the salmon phyllo. Garnish with salmon caviar and serve immediately.

Tips:

Choose the right potatoes: For the best results, use a firm, waxy potato like Yukon Gold or Red Bliss. These potatoes will hold their shape well when cooked and won't become too mushy.
Scrub the potatoes well: Before baking, scrub the potatoes with a vegetable brush to remove any dirt or debris. This will help the potatoes cook evenly.
Prick the potatoes with a fork: This will help the steam escape and prevent the potatoes from bursting while baking.
Bake the potatoes until they are tender: The potatoes are done baking when you can easily pierce them with a fork. This should take about 45 minutes to an hour, depending on the size of the potatoes.
Let the potatoes cool slightly before handling: The potatoes will be very hot when they come out of the oven, so let them cool for a few minutes before handling them.
Make the dressing while the potatoes are cooling: This will give the flavors in the dressing time to develop.
Toss the potatoes with the dressing while they are still warm: This will help the dressing coat the potatoes evenly.
Serve the potato salad warm: Potato salad is best served warm, but it can also be served cold.
