Ingredients

2 pounds small red or yellow potatoes, washed and halved
1 head of garlic
3 tablespoons olive oil, divided
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup sour cream
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
Salt and pepper to taste
1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped

Instructions

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Roast the Garlic: Cut the top off the head of garlic, drizzle with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, wrap in aluminum foil, and roast in the oven for about 30-35 minutes until soft. Let it cool before squeezing out the roasted cloves.
Cook the Potatoes: Boil the halved potatoes in salted water for about 15-20 minutes, or until fork-tender. Drain and let them cool slightly.

Prepare the Dressing: In a bowl, mix together the mayonnaise, sour cream, Dijon mustard, apple cider vinegar, and squeeze in the roasted garlic cloves. Stir until smooth. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Combine Salad Ingredients: In a large bowl, toss the cooked potatoes with the dressing until well coated. Add the chopped parsley and mix gently.
Chill and Serve: Refrigerate the salad for at least 30 minutes before serving to let the flavors meld. Serve chilled or at room temperature.
