directions

Step 1

Put the potatoes in a pot with cold water and add some salt. Cover, bring to a boil and boil until fork-tender, 10 to 15 minutes. Drain, cut in half and transfer to a bowl.

Step 2

Toast the pine nuts in a skillet over low heat until just light golden, 3 to 4 minutes.

Step 3

Mix together the mayonnaise, olive oil, pesto, lemon juice and salt and pepper to taste in a bowl until creamy and smooth. Taste and adjust the seasoning.

Step 4

Pour half the dressing over the potatoes and toss to combine. Sprinkle over the pine nuts and stir in. Add more dressing to taste.

Step 5

Cover and refrigerate the potato salad for a few hours. To serve, sprinkle lots of small basil leaves over the top.
