Method

Preparation

Scrub the potatoes and boil them, with 4 of the mint leaves, until easily pierceable with a kitchen knife.
Once cooked (15 - 20 mins), drain and allow to cool. Slice into finger thickness slices.
Meanwhile, top and tail the radishes and wash them. Slice thinly.
Skin the onion and chop into thin strips.
Cut the cheese into small chunks.
Zest and juice the lemon.
Chop the rosemary and remaining mint.

Assembly

Mix the dressing (oil, lemon zest, lemon juice) in a bowl using the back of a spoon. Season with salt and pepper and add the capers, rosemary and mint.
Combine the potatoes, cheese, and onion in a salad bowl and pour in the dressing.
Toss gently to coat the potatoes and cheese, and then chill for 30 minutes.

Serve

Serve chilled as a main course salad. Other dishes could be Tzatziki, or Israeli Salad.

Variations

Serve the cheese on the side if vegans are present.
