Ingredients
5 tsp. Olive oil (divided) |
12 ounces Yukon gold potatoes (cut into 1 inch cubes) |
64 fluid ounces Water |
1 cup 1/2 inch pieces Green beans |
2 quart Water |
8 ounces Green beans |
1/4 cup Water |
2 tsp.. White wine vinegar |
1 tsp.. Honey |
2 tsp. Dijon mustard |
1/4 tsp. Salt |

Instructions
When the oven is hot, place 1 teaspoon of oil in the pan and swirl to coat.
Add the potatoes and return the pan to the oven. Roast for about 15 minutes until lightly crisped on the outside. Toss the pan about every 3 minutes to have the potatoes cook evenly.
While the potatoes are cooking, place the water over high heat.
When the water boils, add the green beans and reduce the heat to medium low.
Blanch the green beans for about 5 minutes until tender.
While the beans are cooking, fill a large mixing bowl with water and ice.
When the beans are done, place them immediately into the ice water. Chill, drain, and place in the refrigerator.
Remove the potatoes from the oven, place on a plate, let cool for about 5 minutes, then place in the refrigerator until chilled.
Place the remaining 4 teaspoons olive oil, vinegar, honey, mustard, salt, pepper and parmesan in a large bowl and whisk until smooth. Chill.
When the potatoes are chilled, add them to the bowl with the dressing.
Cut the green beans into 1 inch pieces and add to the bowl with the potatoes.
Toss well and serve.
