More often than not it is the creamy variety which can be very filling and can get boring after a while.
It also is a food safety hazard in warm weather if it is the mayonnaise laden type.
A friend gave me this recipe that she got out of one of Jamie Oliver's cookbooks.
I tweaked it a little to suit my tastes.
The olive oil makes it heart healthy and safe to take along on picnics. The dill and capers give it a tangy unique flavour. You can peel the potatoes if you like. I left the skins on for extra nutritional punch.
I love the fact that this salad tastes delicious hot, cold or at room temperature. I also adore the simplicity of it and how easy it is to put together.
I think you will find this salad a refreshing change and will find yourself making it over and over.
Rustic Tangy Potato Salad
- 8 new potatoes scrubbed or 1/2 a bag of baby potatoes
- 1/4 cup lemon juice
- 3 tbsp chopped capers
- 1/2 a bunch of chopped fresh dill
- 1/2 a Vidilia onion diced
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1/2 cup of olive oil
Mix all other ingredients in a large bowl.
Add the potatoes and toss well.
Chill for 1 hour or serve warm or room temperature.
Cheers!
