Ingredients

1 1/2 pounds/ 750 g unpeeled small new potatoes, preferably organic, scrubbed
Coarse sea salt to taste
½ cup chives coarsely chopped
½ cup fresh flat-leaf parsley, finely chopped
¼ cup marigold leaves whole
Freshly ground black pepper to taste
½ - 2/3 cup Greek extra virgin olive oil
1/3 cup red wine vinegar optional

Instructions

Once you scrub and rinse the potatoes and remove any tough black eyes on their surface, place in a pot of cold water and bring to a boil. Add about a tablespoon of salt. Simmer for 20 minutes or so, until fork tender. Remove immediately, drain and rinse in cold water.
Place the potatoes in a mixing bowl and toss with all the remaining ingredients. Serve immediately. Salad is best warm!
