Best 9 Greekmediterranean Potato Salad Recipes

GREEK POTATO SALAD

Steps:

• Drain the (hot) potatoes of any liquid and cut into nice big chunks.
• Add all the ingredients, except parsley and/or cilantro and stir, carefully, to incorporate the oil into the potato (most of the oil will be absorbed, but some may reappear if the salad sits too long- just give it another stir).
• Many of the potato chunks will start to puree and others will stay in nice big pieces- texturally you're going from creamy to chunky in ever bite. When the salad has cooled a bit, add the parsley and/or cilantro. I like this warm or at room temperature - never cold.
