Not really sure why Nigel Slater calls this a "salad". It's more like roasted smashed potatoes with a warm mustard vinaigrette. Call it what you wish, but I call it delicious!
Served alongside a roast chicken and some green beans, the food moans could be heard around the block.

Place the little new potatoes in a roasting pan and scatter the garlic cloves around them.
Drizzle w/ olive oil and sprinkle w/ sea salt. Scatter the herb sprigs around the potatoes and roast for 45 minutes until puffed and golden.

Gently smash the roasted potatoes with the back of a fork and drizzle over some of the dressing (you can save the rest for a salad or next week’s potatoes). Squeeze the roasted garlic from its peel and add to the salad.
