Matt says...
My kids love potato salad, but don’t like the
strong flavours of capers or cornichons, so
I’ve made them both optional.
Get ahead
This salad and can be made the day before, chilled
and then pulled out a few hours
before serving
Method
-
Boil the potatoes in salted water for 20 mins until just cooked, drain, then cool.
-
Cut the potatoes into chunks, then throw into a bowl with the shallots, capers and cornichons, if using. Add enough mayonnaise to bind, then mix together the olive oil and vinegar and add just enough to give a little sharpness to the salad. Stir in the finely chopped parsley and serve.
