Potato

Juicy tender steak and spuds with a fresh salsa verde - a delicious, crowd-pleasing addition for your next family BBQ!

There was much debate as to the origins of this recipe and the short story goes like this: photographer Jani’s husband, Alec, created it, my kids loved it and then recreated it themselves. When I announced that I was going to share Alec’s recipe here, 10-year-old Maude disappeared and then presented me a short time later with a carefully written recipe for ‘her’ potato salad. So here it is: my version of Alec and Maude’s potato salad. Recipe by Fiona Hugues. Photo by Jani Shepherd/Gatherum Collectif.
