with mustard seed dressing

1/2 1/4 2 lb. new potatoes cup shelled fresh peas tsp. black or brown mustard seeds
Tbsp. plain yogurt, optional tsp. Dijon mustard Tbsp. finely chopped shallots tsp. kosher salt tsp. freshly ground black pepper

Place potatoes in a large pot of salted water; bring to a boil and cook until almost tender, about 20 minutes. Drop in peas and cook until tender, 3–5 minutes; drain well. Transfer warm potatoes and peas to a large bowl and gently crush the potatoes (they should remain almost whole).
Meanwhile, toast mustard seeds in a small, dry skillet, until they just begin to pop, about 1 minute; transfer to a bowl.
Whisk in yogurt, Dijon, shallots, salt, and pepper. Add dressing and olive oil to bowl with potatoes and peas; toss to combine.
Stir in mint or chives; taste and adjust seasoning, if necessary. Serve salad warm.
