The Method
- 1
Place the Jersey Royal potatoes in a large saucepan and cover with cold water. Add a generous pinch of salt.
- 2
Bring to a boil and cook for 15-20 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender when pierced with a knife. Drain in a colander.
- 3
While the potatoes are still warm, return them to the saucepan. Add the Jersey butter and toss gently to coat the potatoes. The butter will melt and create a delicious, buttery glaze.
- 4
In a small bowl, whisk together the Jersey double cream, mayonnaise, lemon juice, salt, and pepper to form the dressing.
- 5
Gently fold the dressing into the warm potatoes, being careful not to break them up too much.
- 6
Stir in the chopped chives.
- 7
Serve immediately while the potatoes are still warm, or chill for later. A knob of extra Jersey butter on top is optional but highly recommended!

Chef's Tips
Don't overcook the potatoes, as they will become mushy. They should be tender but still hold their shape.
For a richer flavour, use a combination of Jersey cream and crème fraîche.
Other herbs such as parsley or dill can be added to the salad if desired.
This potato salad is best served fresh, but it can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
Serve alongside grilled Jersey sea bass or locally reared Jersey lamb for a true taste of the island.
