In the past I've tossed the warm potatoes through a grainy French dressing - lots of wholegrain mustard and some garlic in it.

I second Dazz's suggestion - wholegrain mustard vingarette is the way to go!

Actually I think it compliments the potatoes (and other root veges too) better than the mayo one.

bumblebee13 & crsdbl ... I think both of your ideas would taste fine. Only one way to find out ... give it a try! That's how new recipes are born.

I know this is creamy but different.
How about using a can or half a can of Watties just add honey mustard chicken sauce to the potatoes...
We do this often for dinner its yum.

if you want more healthy - I had store brought mayo and dilute with more milk - it doesn't "glug" as much...
