Time 35m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 lb new potato
4 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 lemon
1 tablespoon honey
1 red onion
3 tablespoons of fresh mint
7 ounces feta
black pepper

Steps:

  • Cook the new potatoes in a large pan of boiling water until tender, about 10 minutes, depending on size.
  • Drain thoroughly and set to one side.
  • Pour the oil into a small bowl add the finely grated zest and juice of the lemon and the honey. Whisk.
  • Using the end of a rolling pin or a large wooden spoon, roughly crush the potatoes, not so they are completely broken up but just enough so their skins split and the flesh is exposed so it soaks up some of the dressing.
  • Finely chop the red onion and sprinkle over the potatoes.
  • Chop the mint and crumble the feta and add to the potatoes, drizzle over the dressing and toss to mix, season well with black pepper and salt if desired, not forgetting the feta can be a bit salty.
  • Serve with salad leaves.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my potatoes were mushy. I followed the recipe exactly, but I think I needed to cook the potatoes for less time.

The potatoes were a little undercooked for my taste, but overall this was a good recipe. I think it would be better with a little more salt and pepper.

This is a very flavorful dish. I would recommend using fresh mint and Feta for the best results. I served this with a side of chicken, and it was a delicious and satisfying meal.

I'm not sure I would have ever thought to combine these ingredients, but it works! This recipe is a great way to use up fresh summer potatoes.

These potatoes are the perfect side dish for a summer cookout. They're light and airy, with a hint of freshness from the mint and a salty tang from the Feta. I highly recommend them.

I was surprised at how easy it was to make this dish. I've never crushed potatoes before, but it was as simple as just using a potato smasher. The potatoes were crispy and flavorful, and the mint and Feta added a nice touch of freshness and saltiness
