Vegan Dill Potato Salad with Fiddleheads (No Mayo)
This vegan dill potato salad is made with no mayo, and instead uses a delicious olive oil vinaigrette. With the addition of fiddleheads (or asparagus) this is a great springtime recipe!
Combine all the ingredients for the dressing in a bowl and whisk together. Set aside for now.
Place the potatoes in a pot and fill the pot with water to about an inch higher than the potatoes. Place on the stove over medium heat and bring to a boil. Continue boiling for 15-20 minutes (depending on the size of the potatoes), until tender (but not mushy). When cool enough to handle, chop into ½ to ¾ inch chunks. Place the potatoes in a large bowl.
Meanwhile, as potatoes are cooking, boil fiddleheads in another pot for 15 minutes.*
When the fiddleheads are done, drain them. In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Sauté fiddleheads and garlic for 2-3 min. Add the fiddleheads and garlic to the bowl with the potatoes.
Add the celery, green onions, parsley, and dill to the bowl with the potatoes. Pour the dressing in and toss well. Serve warm and enjoy.
Notes
*Fiddleheads should be boiled before sautéing for food safety reasons.
*If using asparagus instead of fiddleheads, skip the boiling step and instead sauté the asparagus for 3 minutes, add the garlic, and continue cooking another 2 minutes total.
