Patatosalata (Greek Potato Salad)

Ingredients

  • 2 pounds of potatoes (Yukon Gold or red potatoes work great!)
  • 1 cup diced cucumbers
  • 1/2 cup diced red onion
  • 1/2 cup Kalamata olives, chopped
  • 1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil
  • 1/4 cup red wine vinegar
  • 1-2 cloves of garlic, minced
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste
  • Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. First, peel and dice those potatoes into bite-sized chunks. Toss them in a big pot of salted water and boil until they’re fork-tender. This should take about 15 minutes – don’t overdo it!
  2. Once they’re cooked, drain the potatoes and let them cool down a bit. You want them warm but not too hot so they won’t fall apart in the salad.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, combine the diced cucumbers, red onion, and Kalamata olives. Those olives are gonna bring a salty, tangy kick that’s so good!
  4. In another small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, red wine vinegar, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper. This dressing is key to getting that bold flavor.
  5. Gently fold the potatoes into the vegetable mixture and drizzle that dressing all over. Toss everything together but be careful not to mash the potatoes – you want them to maintain their shape!
  6. Cover the bowl and let the salad chill in the fridge for at least 30 minutes. This allows all those flavors to come together and get even tastier.
  7. Right before serving, sprinkle some fresh parsley on top for that extra pop of flavor and color.

And just like that, you have a zesty, delicious Patatosalata ready to serve! This dish is sure to be a hit at your next get-together, so make enough to share, ’cause trust me, they’re gonna keep coming back for more. Enjoy!
