Instructions

Wash the potatoes and place them in a large pot, covering them with cold water. Add a good pinch of salt to the water, bring to a boil, and cook until fork-tender, about 15-20 minutes.
Preheat your oven to 425 degrees F.
Drain the potatoes and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Gently smash each potato with the bottom of a glass until slightly flattened but intact.
Drizzle the smashed potatoes with olive oil and brush to distribute evenly. Season with flakey sea salt. Roast in the oven for 15-20 minutes until golden brown and crispy.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, Greek yogurt, Dijon mustard, apple cider vinegar, parsley, green onions, dill, sea salt, and pepper.
Once the potatoes are done, let them cool slightly and chop them into bite-sized pieces, leaving some larger. Toss the crispy potatoes with the dressing to coat gently.
Refrigerate the salad for at least 30 minutes to allow flavors to combine. When ready to serve, transfer to a dish and garnish with additional herbs if desired.

Notes

For a tangier flavor, increase the amount of apple cider vinegar in the dressing.
You can substitute the Greek yogurt with sour cream if preferred.
This potato salad is best served at room temperature.
