Maniatiki Salad (Potato salad with oranges and fennel)

Ingredients

• 3-4 medium size potatoes ((we prefer yellow flesh))
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 fennel bulb, cut into slivers
• 2 oranges, cut into segments with the pith and membrane removed
• 1/2 cup red onion slices
• 1 tbsp capers
• 1/2 cup Kalamata olives, pitted, and cut in half
• 1/4 cup flat leaf parsley, chopped
• 1 tbsp chopped up fennel fronds
• 1/4 cup olive oil
• 3 teaspoons red wine vinegar
• 2 teaspoons orange juice
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• pepper to taste

Instructions

1. 1

   boil: Peel the potatoes and cut them in half. Place the potatoes in a large pot and add enough water to cover them. Add 1 teaspoon of salt to the water. Bring to a boil, lower the heat to medium-low and boil for about 20 minutes, until you can easily pierce them with a fork.

2. 2

   Drain, and let the potatoes cool. Once they have cooled, cut them into bite-sized cubes.

3. 3

   combine: In a bowl large enough to hold all of your salad ingredients, combine the potatoes, fennel, oranges, red onion, capers, olives, parsley and fennel fronds.

4. 4

   whisk: Combine all of your dressing ingredients in a bowl and whisk to combine. Alternatively, place all dressing ingredients in a jar and shake to combine.

5. 5

   Pour the dressing over the salad and using a rubber spatula toss gently to ensure that all ingredients are coated with the dressing.
