Red, White, and Blue Potato Salad

This vibrant red, white and blue potato salad is a colourful vegetarian side dish that brings a sophisticated twist to the classic picnic staple. By using a mixture of red-skinned, white, and purple potatoes, you create a striking visual contrast that is perfectly complemented by the creamy, tangy dressing. The addition of sweet peas and savoury blue cheese adds layers of texture and flavour, making it a standout accompaniment for any seasonal gathering.

Ideal for making in advance, this recipe allows the flavours to meld beautifully while chilling in the fridge. It is a brilliant choice for summer barbecues, garden parties, or a simple Sunday lunch. The combination of soured cream and Dijon mustard provides a refreshing sharpness that balances the richness of the cheese, ensuring a balanced dish that feels both comforting and elegant.
