Middle Eastern Style Potato Salad Recipes

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add potatoes and cook until tender but still firm, about 15 minutes. Drain, cool and chop.
• In a large bowl, combine the potatoes, green peppers, cucumbers, red onion and cheese.
• Whisk together the lemon juice, salad dressing, salt and pepper. Pour over salad and toss to coat. Serve with pita bread wedges if desired.

Steps:

• 1. Cook potatoes in salted water until fork tender. Drain well. Place in large bowl and cool slightly.
• 2. While potatoes are cooling, mix together olive oil, lemon juice (start with 3 tbsp), parsley, salt, and pepper.
• 3. Add a little over half the dressing to the potatoes and mix well.
• 4. Mix in kalamata olives and green onion. Check seasoning. Add a little more dressing if needed. (Serve at room temp or if you prefer, chilled.) Just before serving sprinkle with Feta cheese, if desired.

Steps:

• In a large pot, put the potatoes and cover with cold water; salt and bring to a boil.
• Cook potatoes for 10-12 min or until fork tender.
• Cool and quarter, or cut into 8 pieces depending on size.
• Meanwhile, in another large bowl, stir together the green onions, garlic, olive oil, lemon juice, ground cumin, salt, black pepper, allspice, and coriander.
• Add the potatoes, parsley, and tomatoes; toss well to coat.
