Potato Salad - Kibrisli Patates Salata

Recipe #282409 | 35 min | 10 min prep | SERVES 2 (Change Servings)

RECIPE BY: Chef floWer

This is my mother’s recipe, she always makes it if we had a barbeque. All my relatives have a different version of Patates Salata, some add lemon juice instead of vinegar. Others relatives add beetroot/beet or fresh parsley or fresh mint or onions. This is the way I like it, quick, simple and mums recipe.

    Just how I remembered them when I lived in KKTC! I used to add lemon juice sometimes as well, or in place of the white vinegar. A lovely recipe, and I hope you don't mind Rose, but my new spuds were so fresh and nice - I left the skins on them! Another Cypriot classic that I love to eat - thanks for posting the recipe. FT

    Your right, Chef floWer your Mum did a wonderful, truly prolific job at making these simply dressed potatoes with the totally amazing taste. I made these for our Superbowl pary and I truly couldn't of made anything easier to put together. We tried them both ways, one warm and one cool. Either way, they are amazing. The warm potato had pockets of warmth, coupled with the warm olive oil and little wonderful bit of mint and salt. I did not change a thing about this recipe. It just is wonderful, wholesome, and comforting taste that goes a long, long way. Oh yes! There was a little change, I had some little red new potatoes the I just quartered and left the skin on. Beautiful! Thank you, Chef floWer and your Mum too :D
