Notes
This recipe makes 4 generous servings so could serve 6-8 as a small side dish.
This salad is best served right away or within a few hours but can be stored in the fridge for up to 3 days.
Adding a bit of the potato cooking water creates a bit of a creamy texture when it mixes with the outside of the cooked potatoes. It's optional and the salad is delicious with or without it.
