Greek-style potato salad

Ingredients for 4 servings:

• 1 kg potatoes
• 1 large onion(s)
• 300 g ham, cooked
• 250 g tomatoes
• 3 cloves garlic

• 2 large lemons
• 2 tbsp olive oil
• 1 bunch of flat-leaf parsley
• 200 g sheep’s cheese, if desired
• e.g. balsamic vinegar

Instructions

Working time approx. 30 minutes; Total time approx. 30 minutes

Cut the potatoes into small cubes, boil in salted water until al dente, and drain. Peel the onion and slice it into very fine strips. Dice the ham. Deseed and dice the tomatoes. Chop the garlic and parsley. Squeeze the lemons. Fry the potatoes in 1 tablespoon of olive oil, briefly sauté the onions, season with salt and pepper, and deglaze with balsamic vinegar. Then transfer to a bowl and let cool slightly. Add the ham and tomatoes. Add the lemon juice and mix everything well. Finally, fold in the remaining olive oil and chopped parsley and season again to taste. Variation: Add more garlic; a pinch of chili also works well. Use sliced, deseeded cucumbers. However, we think the salad tastes best when I add diced feta cheese.
