Instructions
- Step 1: Preheat oven to 425°F. Wash and halve 1.5 pounds baby potatoes and toss with 3 tablespoons olive oil and 1 teaspoon sea salt. Spread evenly on a baking sheet and roast for 25 minutes, turning halfway, until tender and golden.
- Step 2: In a small bowl, whisk together 1 tablespoon sesame oil, 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar, 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard, 1 minced garlic clove, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper until fully emulsified and fragrant.
- Step 3: Transfer the hot roasted potatoes to a large bowl and immediately pour the dressing over them, tossing gently to coat so the warm potatoes absorb the flavors.
- Step 4: Stir in 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley and sprinkle 1 tablespoon toasted sesame seeds on top before serving.
