Brief history

Potatoes have been discovered over time in various corners of the world and have become a staple food in many cultures. This recipe brings a personal touch, combining potatoes with garlic mayonnaise, a prestigious sauce that has its origins in traditional dishes. Garlic mayonnaise is a savory condiment, perfect for balancing flavors and highlighting the aroma of the potatoes.

Step by step: How to prepare new potatoes with garlic mayonnaise and dill

1. Preparing the potatoes
Start by peeling and washing the new potatoes well. If you have larger potatoes, you can cut them in halves or quarters, but the small ones can be left whole. They will have a better texture and cook evenly.

2. Cooking the potatoes
Heat the Dry-Cooker pan over low heat and add a few tablespoons of olive oil. Once the oil is heated, add the potatoes and cover the pan with a lid. Let them cook for about 25-30 minutes, stirring occasionally. The potatoes are ready when they are soft inside and golden brown outside.

3. Preparing the garlic mayonnaise
In the meantime, peel the head of garlic and crush the garlic cloves in a bowl. Add a little salt over the garlic and mix well. This will help release the flavors. Gradually add the olive oil, mixing continuously until you reach the desired consistency. It's important to add the oil slowly to achieve a well-emulsified mayonnaise.

4. Finalizing the mayonnaise
Once you have a smooth mayonnaise, add a teaspoon of apple cider vinegar, a teaspoon of honey, and the hot mustard. Mix well to combine all the ingredients. Taste the sauce and adjust with salt or oil as preferred.

5. Serving
When the potatoes are ready, remove them from the pan and place them on a platter. Sprinkle a little salt and drizzle with the garlic mayonnaise. Garnish with freshly chopped dill and green garlic leaves, if used.
