Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Fresh Green Bean and Red Potato Salad.
Step 1
To start your delicious potato and green bean salad, grab a large pot and fill it with red potatoes, covering them with about an inch of water.
Step 2
Bring the pot to a lively boil and let the potatoes cook until they’re tender, which should take around 15 minutes.
Step 3
After about 10 minutes of cooking, toss in the green beans to steam them perfectly alongside the potatoes.
Step 4
Once everything is cooked to perfection, drain the potatoes and green beans, allowing them to cool just a bit.

Now, it’s time to get hands-on! Cut the cooled potatoes into quarters and place them in a large mixing bowl.
Step 6
Add in the vibrant green beans, some chopped red onion for a bit of crunch, fresh basil for a burst of flavor, and season with salt and pepper.
Step 7
Gently toss everything together, letting those flavors mingle.
Step 8
In a separate medium bowl, whisk together olive oil, balsamic vinegar, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, minced garlic, and a splash of Worcestershire sauce until it’s all beautifully blended.
Step 9
Pour this delightful dressing over your salad and stir gently to ensure every ingredient is coated in that zesty goodness.
Step 10
Taste your creation and feel free to adjust the seasoning with a little extra salt and pepper if it needs a little more love.
