Simple Cold Potato Salad
A light and refreshing potato salad with lemon and green onion
Prep: 10 min
Cooking: 30 min
Yield: 6-8 servings
Ingredients:
Potatoes
Green onion (1 per 3-4 potatoes), finely chopped
Lemon juice and olive oil in equal parts, enough to coat
Salt, generously
Black pepper (optional)
Preparation:
Boil the potatoes in water until they are tender
Slice the cooked potatoes into rings
Generously sprinkle chopped green onion over the potato slices
Drizzle lemon juice generously over the salad
Add olive oil in roughly equal amount to the lemon juice
Season generously with salt, and add a little black pepper if desired
Notes:
This is a ratio-based recipe - scale everything up or down based on how many potatoes you're using
The dominant flavor comes from the combination of lemon juice and salt, which pairs beautifully with the mildness of the potatoes, while the sweetness of the green onion adds a pleasant contrast
