Ingredients

For the salad:

2kg new potatoes

6 spring onions, trimmed and thinly sliced

Large handful fresh dill, roughly chopped

Large handful fresh flat leaf parsley, roughly chopped

200g feta, crumbled

For the dressing

125g light tahini

1 tbsp Steenbergs za’atar spice blend, plus extra to serve

1 tbsp Steenbergs ground sumac, plus extra to serve

5 tbsp extra virgin olive oil

2 tbsp maple syrup

3 lemons, juiced

 

Method

  1. Add the potatoes to a large saucepan, cover with water and add a large pinch of salt. Cover with a lid, bring to the boil then simmer for 15-20 mins, until cooked through.
  2. Carefully drain and spread them out on a wide baking tray while they steam. Once cool, halve the potatoes and transfer to a bowl.
  3. In a jug combine all the dressing ingredients with 4-5 tbsp cold water, until it has a thick but pourable consistency. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Add a little more lemon juice or maple syrup to taste.
  4. Add the spring onions, dill, parsley and feta to the potatoes then pour over the dressing. Carefully toss everything together then transfer to a serving plate with a little extra za’atar and sumac on top. Enjoy!
