Description
Deviled potatoes are a fun, bite-sized appetizer inspired by classic deviled eggs, featuring tender baby potatoes filled with a creamy, tangy mustard and pickle mixture perfect for parties and gatherings.
Ingredients
1½ pounds baby potatoes (24 oz / 680 g)
1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon salt, divided
½ cup mayonnaise
1 tablespoon yellow mustard
¼ cup chopped dill pickles (about 2 pickles)
¼ cup finely chopped green onions (about 3 onions)
½ teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon paprika, divided
Chopped chives for garnish
Instructions
- Place baby potatoes in a large saucepan and cover completely with water. Add 1 tablespoon salt.
- Bring to a boil over medium-high heat and cook for about 10 minutes, until fork-tender.
- Drain and let cool until safe to handle.
- Slice each potato in half lengthwise.
- Using a small spoon or melon baller, carefully scoop out the center of each half, leaving about ⅛ inch around the edges.
- Place the scooped potato centers in a mixing bowl and mash until smooth.
- Add mayonnaise, mustard, chopped pickles, green onions, black pepper, remaining 1 teaspoon salt, and ½ teaspoon paprika. Mix until well combined and smooth.
- Spoon or pipe the filling into the potato halves.
- Sprinkle with remaining paprika and garnish with chopped chives before serving.
Notes
Leave a thin layer of potato in the shells to prevent tearing.
For extra flavor, roast the potatoes instead of boiling.
Greek yogurt can replace mayonnaise for a lighter option.
Best served chilled or at room temperature.
