Method

  1. Boil the potatoes in a large pan of salted water for about 25 minutes or until tender, then drain and leave to cool slightly.
  2. Blend the rest of the ingredients together (except the ½ tbsp chopped mint and lemon wedges) in a small food processor, or pound in a pestle and mortar, into a smooth paste.
  3. While the potatoes are still warm, cut them in half, then toss with the dressing and a generous pinch of salt. Scatter with the extra chopped mint, then squeeze over a little lemon juice to serve.

Absolutely love this! It’s so fresh and zingy. I had it with some spicy grilled chicken and it was perfect. I’ll definitely be doing my potato salad this way all summer.
