Hello, my friends
the weather in this part of the world has has got really nice and warm in the last few days and according to the forecast is here to stay for good while. I am loving it . That sometimes means a lot less time spent cooking and lots of fresh vegetables.
The new potato season is also on so today I want to share with you two very easy recipes for potato salads and they both can be enjoyed warm or cold and also as a part of a picnic.
The base for both salads are boiled potatoes .
Here is what you need for the first one :
- boiled potatoes (preferably new potatoes, so you can enjoy the skins)
- white onion
- spring onion
- celery
- red pepper
- juice from 1/2 lemon
- some olive oil
- oregano
- salt and pepper to taste
Once you have cut the potatoes simply season them with salt and pepper to taste , then add the lemon juice and the rest of the ingredients. Mix and enjoy !
The other recipe is also very easy , but just as tasty.
Here is what you need .
- boiled potatoes
- fresh garlic
- basil
- baby leaf salad (lamb lettuce, spinach , ext)
- salt and pepper to taste
- juice from 1/2 lime
- olive oil
Following the same process you first cut and season the potatoes and then add the rest of the ingredients.It is good to prepare the potatoes simply to keep their texture and it will prevent them of turning mushy. Adding fresh garlic will boost the flavour, but the salad taste just as good even without it .
Mix, serve and enjoy!
Thank you very much for all your love and support.
Lots of love,
Ivelina
