Ingredients

  • For the Dressing:
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 1/2 lb small red potatoes, unpeeled
  • 3 celery stalks, cut into slices 1/4 inch thick
  • 1/4 cup finely diced red (Spanish) onion
  • 1/2 cup fat-free sour cream
  • 1/2 cup fat-free mayonnaise
  • 1 tablespoon mustard seeds
  • 1 green onion, including the tender green tops, finely chopped
  • 1/4 cup finely chopped fresh parsley
  • 1 teaspoon dry mustard
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
  • 1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh parsley

Preparation

Step 1

Bring a large saucepan three-fourths full of water to a boil. Add the salt and then the potatoes. Boil until tender but slightly resistant when pierced with a fork, 15-25 minutes depending upon the size. Drain and, when cool enough to handle, cut the unpeeled potatoes into 1-inch (2.5-cm) pieces.

In a bowl, combine the potatoes, celery and red onion and toss briefly to mix. Set aside.

FOR THE DRESSING:

In a small bowl and using a fork, stir together the sour cream, mayonnaise, mustard seeds, green onion, parsley, dry mustard, salt and pepper, mixing well.

Pour the dressing over the potato mixture. Using a large spoon, mix well, being careful not to break up the potatoes too much.

TO SERVE:

Transfer the salad to a large serving platter or bowl, if desired. For the best flavor, cover and chill for up to 2 hours before serving. Sprinkle the parsley over the top and serve.
