Follow The Directions

01

Step

Place the potatoes in a medium saucepan and cover with cold, salted water. Bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until the potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork, about 10 minutes.

02

Step

Drain the potatoes well and let them cool slightly until you can handle them comfortably. Slice the potatoes into 1/2-inch thick rounds and place them in a large bowl.

03

Step

In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, red wine vinegar, and crushed garlic. Pour the dressing over the warm potatoes and gently toss to coat evenly.

04

Step

Add the chopped red bell pepper, sliced green olives, minced shallot, and chopped fresh parsley to the bowl with the potatoes. Season generously with sea salt and freshly ground black pepper. Toss gently to combine all the ingredients.

05

Step

Serve the potato salad warm or at room temperature, with lemon wedges on the side for squeezing over each serving.

For the best flavor, use high-quality extra virgin olive oil.
Don't overcook the potatoes, as they will become mushy. They should be tender but still hold their shape.
Feel free to add other ingredients to your liking, such as hard-boiled eggs, capers, or a pinch of smoked paprika.
This salad can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Just bring it to room temperature before serving.
