Ingredients
  

  • 2 - 2 ½ lbs. Yukon gold or Russet potatoes
  • 3 spring onions or scallions
  • ½ bunch Italian parsley
  • ¼ cup mint leaves
  • ¼ - ½ cup lemon juice
  • ¼ cup olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper

Instructions
 

  • Wash and scrub potatoes. If using Russet potatoes, peel them as well (Yukon gold or other waxy potatoes do not need to be peeled). Place potatoes in a pot of cold water, and bring them to a boil. Lower heat to medium and simmer for 15-20 mins, until fork-tender and soft.
  • Meanwhile, finely chop parsley, mint leaves, and spring onions. Combine lemon juice, garlic, olive oil, salt and pepper in a small bowl. Taste to see if you would like more lemon juice or salt.
  • Dice cooked potatoes, and then toss in a large bowl or serving dish with dressing and herbs. Refrigerate for at least 15 mins before serving, to let the flavors marinate and infuse.
