Boil the potatoes in their skins for 22 minutes, drain, and cool for 10 minutes.
Cut the potatoes into large cubes and season lightly with salt and lemon.
Toast the poppy seeds in a dry pan for 2 minutes and remove before their color changes so they do not turn bitter.
Mix the strained yogurt, garlic, olive oil, and dill for 45 seconds.
Combine the potatoes with the yogurt sauce, sprinkle the poppy seeds on top, and serve cold so the seeds do not soften inside the yogurt.
💡 Tip: Not mixing the potatoes with yogurt before they cool completely reduces the sauce becoming watery.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve cold, sprinkle poppy seeds on top, and finish with dill if using.
