Potato Salad
I made this a while back to go with lebanese-styled roasted chicken. i just decided to post it now.
here's the recipe from zov's:
2 pounds small red-skinned potatoes, cut into 3/4-inch pieces
for the dressing:
1/3 cup lemon juice
1/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil
2 1/2 teaspoons salt, plus more to taste
1 teaspoon ground black pepper, plus more to taste
1 teaspoon crushed dried mint
for the salad:
1/3 cup finely chopped green onions
1/3 cup finely chopped red onion
3 tablespoons finely chopped fresh mint
fresh mint sprigs, for garnish
to prepare the potatoes:
fill a large pot with water 2 inches deep. place a steamer basket in pot. cover pot and bring water to a boil. place potatoes in basket and steam until just tender, stirring after first 4 minutes, about 8 minutes total. remove potatoes from pot.
to make the dressing:
meanwhile, whisk lemon juice, oil, 2 1/2 teaspoons salt, 1 teaspoon black pepper, and dried mint in large bowl to blend.
to prepare the salad:
add drained hot potatoes to the dressing and toss to coat. add green onions, red onions, and chopped fresh mint. toss gently to combine. set salad aside until it is room temperature, tossing occasionally.
to serve:
season salad to taste with salt and pepper. garnish with fresh mint sprigs and serve.
