Ingredients
- 900 g / 2 pounds baby potatoes, halved Jersey Royals, or small red potatoes
- 200 g | 7 oz feta cheese crumbled
- 5 tbsp mini capers or finely chopped black olives
- 1 red onion very finely sliced
- 1/2 lemon juice only
- 2 tbsp chopped dill or use more parsley
- 1 tbsp chopped parsley
- 3-5 tbsp extra virgin olive oil or use Olive Oil spray for Slimming World version
- 1/2 tsp dried oregano
- Salt and freshly ground pepper to season
- Lemon wedges to serve
Instructions
- Bring a large pot of water to the boil and add a good pinch of salt.
- Add the potatoes and lower heat to a simmer. Cover the pot and cook until fork tender - about 20 minutes.
- Spread the potatoes out on a platter and allow to cool.
- Scatter the capers, feta and red onion over the potatoes.
- Drizzle with the lemon juice and plenty of olive oil and season liberally with salt and pepper to taste.
- Garnish with the parsley, dill and oregano and serve with extra lemon wedges.
Cook the potatoes in the Instant Pot
- Add 1 cup (250ml) water in the pot, place the potatoes in a steamer basket on top and cook for 8 minutes at high pressure. Release the steam manually and remove the basket from the pressure cooker to allow the potatoes to cool down.
Notes
- This salad will last up to 3 days in the fridge. The potatoes will happily absorb the olive oil and lemon juice and become more flavourful.
