When you make the salad, make sure to taste it and add more salt and more lime juice if desired.
Cilantro Lime Potato Salad
Ingredients
- 1 pound red potatoes
- 1/3 cup olive oil
- 4 garlic cloves, minced
- 1/2 bunch cilantro, chopped
- 1 tablespoon lime juice, freshly squeezed
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- pepper
Instructions
- Bring a large pot of water to boil. Add potatoes and boil until potatoes are cooked: soft and tender, about 15-20 minutes. Make sure to boil potatoes so that they are not too soft and don't fall apart.
- In the mean time, in the small bowl, combine olive oil, minced garlic, chopped cilantro, and lime juice. Mix well.
- When potatoes are cooked, drain water from the pan and let the potatoes cool down a bit (or, rinse them quickly under cold water). Cut cooked and slightly cooled potatoes into 1 inch chunks. Place in a medium bowl, add 1/4 teaspoon salt and carefully mix. Pour the cilantro-lime sauce, and carefully mix. Taste, add more salt (maybe 1/8 teaspoon more) and add pepper if desired. Also, if desired, add more freshly squeezed lime juice.
Sounds awesome. Is it better served warm or cold?
