Cold Potato Salad With Tomatoes Olives And Feta Recipes

Steps:

• Place the potatoes in a large pot; cover with water by 2 inches. Season generously with salt and bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer and cook until the potatoes are tender, about 20 minutes. Drain the potatoes; let cool 15 to 20 minutes.
• Whisk the olive oil, vinegar, 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in a medium bowl; stir in the olives and diced celery. Halve the potatoes and transfer to a shallow bowl. Scatter the tomatoes over the potatoes, then drizzle with the vinaigrette. Scatter the celery leaves, basil and chives over the salad and season with salt and pepper.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
• Fill a large pot about halfway with water, and add the potatoes. Set on the stove over high heat and bring to a boil. Boil for about 20 minutes or until tender. Drain potatoes and rinse with cool water. Set aside until cool enough to handle, then cut into thick slices.
• Add the olive oil to a heavy pan set over medium heat. Cook the onions until soft, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic, cumin, chili, and oregano and cook, stirring, for another minute. Stir in the sugar, vinegar, and tomatoes. Add a couple pinches of salt and a bit of freshly ground black pepper. Taste and add additional salt if you'd like.
• Add the potatoes to the baking dish and top with olives. Toss lightly. Pour the tomato mixture over the top. Crumble the feta over the tomatoes, drizzle with a little olive oil, and sprinkle with the remaining 1/2 teaspoon oregano.
