Ingredients

• 1 lb Baby potatoes (red or yellow)
• 0.5 cup Coconut milk
• 3 tbsp Lime juice
• 2 tbsp Fish sauce
• 1 tbsp Brown sugar
• 2 cloves Garlic, minced

• 0.5 cup Fresh cilantro leaves
• 0.25 cup Fresh mint leaves

• 2 Green onions, sliced
• 1 tbsp Vegetable oil

Directions

Step 1

Wash the baby potatoes thoroughly and cut them into halves or quarters if they are large.

Step 2

Place the potatoes in a large pot, cover them with water, and add a pinch of salt. Bring to a boil and cook for about 10-12 minutes, or until the potatoes are fork-tender. Drain and set aside to cool slightly.

Step 3

In a small bowl, prepare the dressing by whisking together the coconut milk, lime juice, fish sauce, brown sugar, and minced garlic. Adjust to taste if necessary.

Step 4

In a large mixing bowl, toss the cooked potatoes with vegetable oil to lightly coat them.

Step 5

Add the sliced red onion, finely chopped red chili, fresh cilantro leaves, mint leaves, green onions, and half of the chopped roasted peanuts to the bowl with the potatoes.

Step 6

Pour the prepared dressing over the potato mixture and toss gently to combine, ensuring all ingredients are evenly coated with the dressing.

Step 7

Transfer the salad to a serving dish and sprinkle the remaining roasted peanuts on top as a garnish.

Step 8

Serve immediately at room temperature or chill in the refrigerator for 20-30 minutes before serving. Enjoy your Thai Styled Potato Salad!
