This Spring potato salad is from the April 2019 Co-op magazine…it really appealed to us to make it the first time as it’s very different from normal potato salad and we both really like asparagus and feta cheese. It’s also quite different as it’s mainly cooked in the oven so you end up with lovely roasted potatoes. It’s a dish that’s not just for Spring time, it’s good to have as a side dish in the Summer too…enjoy it with grilled or barbecued food, or increase the quantities to serve more people as part of a buffet selection.
Tip
- If you can’t get Jersey Royals, if they’re either unavailable in your local shop or supermarket or you’re making it out of season, don’t worry…other new or baby potatoes work well too.
