Ingredients

• 800 grams baby potatoes
• 1 medium red bell pepper
• 200 grams cherry tomatoes
• 1 small red onion
• 100 grams kalamata olives
• 100 grams feta cheese
• 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
• 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
• 1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
• 1 clove garlic
• 1 teaspoon dijon mustard
• 1 teaspoon dried oregano
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Wash and scrub the baby potatoes thoroughly. Cut any larger potatoes in half so they are roughly the same size.

Step 2

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the potatoes, reduce the heat to a simmer, and cook for 15-20 minutes, or until the potatoes are fork-tender. Drain and set aside to cool slightly.

Step 3

Meanwhile, dice the red bell pepper, halve the cherry tomatoes, thinly slice the red onion, and roughly chop the kalamata olives. Place these ingredients in a large mixing bowl.

Step 4

In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, fresh lemon juice, red wine vinegar, minced garlic clove, dijon mustard, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper to make the dressing.

Step 5

Once the potatoes are cool enough to handle, cut them into bite-sized pieces and add them to the mixing bowl with the vegetables.

Step 6

Pour the dressing over the potato and vegetable mixture. Toss everything gently to coat evenly.

Step 7

Crumble the feta cheese over the salad and sprinkle with freshly chopped parsley.

Step 8

Taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt or pepper if needed. Serve the salad at room temperature or chilled.
