Name: Farmers' Market New Potatoes with Saffron Aïoli
Yield: Makes 6 servings
Ingredients: 1 tablespoon water; 1/2 teaspoon crumbled saffron threads; 1/2 teaspoon smoked hot paprika* or Hungarian hot paprika; 1/2 cup mayonnaise; 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil; 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice; 1 garlic clove, minced; 12 4-ounce fingerling potatoes, Yukon Golds, or red-skinned potatoes, unpeeled; Fleur de sel (fine French sea salt); 2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
