بطاطة بالكزبرة
Warm potato salad featuring tender potatoes and tangy cilantro for a delicious meal or side dish.
This is one of those dishes that are packed with flavour with so few ingredients. Potatoes, cilantro, garlic, olive oil and salt -- that's it!
What I love about this dish is that it is versatile, meaning you can serve it as a side dish or make it the main dish for breakfast or dinner. Traditionally, Syrians enjoy this meal for breakfast with pita bread and a steaming cup of black tea.
The star ingredient of this dish is the cilantro; the strong, citrusy flavour brings this simple potato salad alive. You will need an entire bunch for this recipe.
What type of potato should I use?
I like to use yellow or white potatoes when making this dish. I don't recommend using Russet potatoes, as their heavy amount of starch makes them better suited for baked or fried potato dishes.
How do I store this dish?
You can store this dish in an airtight container and keep it in the fridge for up to five days. To reheat, put it in a saucepan with a 1-2 tablespoon of water, cover and cook for about 3-5 minutes, until heated.
