Instructions
- In a large pot, bring salted water to a boil. Add the halved baby potatoes and cook until tender, about 15-20 minutes. Drain and let cool slightly.
- In a large bowl, combine the cooked potatoes, cherry tomatoes, red onion, black olives, and fresh basil leaves.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the extra-virgin olive oil, red wine vinegar, salt, and pepper. Pour the dressing over the salad and toss gently to combine.
- Garnish with chopped fresh parsley and shaved Parmesan cheese. Serve the salad at room temperature or chilled.
Notes
- Cool the Potatoes: Allow the potatoes to cool slightly before mixing to prevent wilting the fresh herbs.
- Adjust the Dressing: Taste and adjust the dressing to your preference; a pinch of sugar can help balance the acidity.
- Storage Tips: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Mix well before serving again.
- Fresh Herbs: For the best flavor, add the fresh basil, parsley, and Parmesan cheese just before serving if making ahead.
- Variations: Feel free to add other vegetables like bell peppers or cucumbers.
