Method
- Bring a pan of salted water to the boil. Scrub the jersey royals clean, then cook in the water for 15 minutes. Meanwhile, very finely dice the red onion and peppers and put in a large bowl with the vinegar and oil.
- Drain the potatoes, leave to steam-dry until cool enough to handle, then slice into 1cm thick coins. While the potatoes are still warm, put them in the bowl with the marinade and toss to combine. Stir in the chopped parsley with plenty of salt and pepper. Leave to cool in the marinade for about 15 minutes, then serve at room temperature.
