About

Another one of the popular dip salads that accompany a mezze or barbecue, Salatet batata is simple to prepare, flavoursome and healthy. It should be noted that it is important to chop the parsley by hand or you will end up with an unappetising dip of dubious colour and unappealing texture.

Ingredients

1 kg (2 lb 4 oz) potatoes, boiled and peeled
4

Method

Cut the potatoes into small cubes and place in a bowl. Add the coarsely chopped onions and chopped parsley. Add oil and lemon and seasoning. Stir and serve. If you are lucky, you will be left with some salad and it will be delicious to the last bite!
