I found this potato salad recipe in a magazine and couldn't wait to make it. I made it last night for family and it was so good. I parbolied the potatoes the day before and then grilled them inside on a grill pan about 2 hours before serving them. Mixed the dressing, poured over the potatoes, then topped with blue cheese and green onions. I served it at room temperature. Delicious ! (I eliminated the watercress.
