Potato Salad with Fresh Herbs and Lemon
2 1/4 pounds small red-skinned potatoes, unpeeled
3/4 cup olive oil
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
1 1/2 teaspoons grated lemon peel
1 green bell pepper, diced
1 cup chopped onion
1/4 cup finely chopped fresh cilantro
1/4 cup finely chopped fresh basil
1/4 cup finely chopped fresh mint
Add potatoes to bowl with dressing and toss to blend.
Let stand 10 minutes.
Season to taste with salt and pepper, adding more dressing, if desired.
Serve at room temperature.

(*) If you make it ahead of time, I recommend saving a good portion of the herbs to add at the last minute. They do tend to turn grey. The salad still tastes great either way.

Pan Roasted Potatoes
2 large Potatoes (peeled)
1 Onion (sliced)
3 cups Water or chicken stock
Bring to boil water or chicken stock, add peeled potatoes (whole) and sliced onion, cook until just done. Drain potatoes and discard onion and stock.
Slice potatoes into wedges or rounds.
4 Tablespoons Olive oil
2 Cloves Garlic
In a hot pan, add 2 tablespoons of olive oil, add garlic to extract the flavor and aroma. With the garlic flavored oil pan roast potatoes until sides turn golden brown.
Salt & pepper
Season with salt and pepper then serve with favorite dish.
Tips:
1) Do not over cook potatoes, it breaks easily when sliced deforming them.
2) Remember that the potatoes are already cooked; pan roasting process just adds flavor texture and color to the potatoes. I have tried pan roasting directly but potatoes are still tough and needs more oil to cook and I always ended up with very oily fried potatoes.
3) Keep the oil and garlic at the center of the pan and potatoes at the sides so that potatoes don’t absorb much oil. Tip pan from time to time to spread the oil to the sides of the pan.
