Ingredients
- 900 g Baby potatoes
- 150 g Feta cheese, crumbled
- 100 g Black olives, pitted and sliced
- 200 g Cherry tomatoes, halved
- 1 medium Red onion, thinly sliced
- 4 tbsp Extra-virgin olive oil
- 2 tbsp Fresh lemon juice
- 1 clove Garlic, minced
- 2 tbsp Fresh parsley, chopped
- 0.5 tsp Salt

Directions
Step 1
Wash the baby potatoes thoroughly and place them in a large pot. Cover with water, add a pinch of salt, and bring to a boil.
Step 2
Reduce the heat to a simmer and cook the potatoes for 15-20 minutes, or until they are fork-tender but not mushy.
Step 3
Drain the potatoes in a colander and allow them to cool slightly. Once cool enough to handle, cut them in halves or quarters, depending on their size.
Step 4
In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, salt, and ground black pepper to make the dressing.
Step 5
Place the cooked potatoes in a large mixing bowl. Add the feta cheese, sliced black olives, halved cherry tomatoes, and sliced red onion.
Step 6
Drizzle the dressing over the potato mixture and toss gently to combine, making sure everything is evenly coated.
Step 7
Sprinkle the chopped fresh parsley over the top and give the salad a final gentle toss.
Step 8
Taste and adjust the seasoning if needed, adding more salt or lemon juice to taste.
Step 9
Serve the potato salad at room temperature or slightly chilled. Enjoy!
