| Muffelata Potato Salad
This potato salad is based on the olive salad mixture that gives muffelatta sandwiches in New Orleans their distinctive taste. 1.5 kg potatoes, cubed 3-4 green onions chopped 1/2 cup sliced green olives 1/2 cup sliced black olives 1 tablespoon minced garlic 1 bell pepper, diced 1/3 cup olive oil 1/3 cup vinegar the juice of one small lemon 2 teaspoons ground cumin 1 teaspoon black pepper 3 teaspoons salt 2 teaspoon oregano (thyme if you don't have oregano) Mix all ingredients except potatoes in a bowl and leave in the refrigerator overnight so that the flavors can meld. Boil potatoes until just soft but not crumbly. Toss with the olive mixture. I topped it with a little parmesan cheese. To really make it taste of Muffelata, use diced ROASTED bell pepper. Also add diced salami and diced provalone cheese. |
