Asparagus And Spring Onion Potato Salad - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    2 lbs tiny new potatoes, scrubbed but not peeled, cut into 1-inch (2.5 cm)
    2 tablespoons lemon juice, 30 ml
    1/2 teaspoon salt, 2 ml
    1/4 teaspoon pepper, 1 ml
    1 lb asparagus, trimmed and cut into 2-inch (5 cm)
    4 green onions, thinly sliced 4
    1/4 cup Hellmann's mayonnaise, 50 ml
    2 tablespoons plain yogurt, 30 ml
    1 teaspoon stone ground dijon mustard, 5 ml
    1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley, 15 ml
Preparation
    Place the potatoes in a steamer basket set over boiling water. Steam until tender, about 15 to 25 minutes. Transfer the potatoes to a large bowl and toss with lemon juice, salt and pepper. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until completely cool.
    Meanwhile, steam the asparagus until bright green and tender crisp, about 3 to 5 minutes. Transfer to a colander and rinse under cold running water until cool. In a small bowl, combine the mayonnaise, yogurt and mustard.
    To serve, gently toss together the cooled potatoes, asparagus and green onions. Drizzle the mayonnaise mixture over the salad, tossing just until everything is coated with dressing. Sprinkle with parsley and serve immediately or refrigerate for up to 2 hours before serving.
