A tangy and flavorful potato salad with sumac, perfect for potlucks or as a side dish.

  • Total Time: 35 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 45 medium potatoes (Yukon gold or red potatoes work well)
  • 1 small red onion, thinly sliced
  • ½ cup black olives, chopped
  • 3 small pickles, chopped
  • ¼ cup capers
  • ⅓ cup chopped parsley
  • 56 sun-dried tomatoes, chopped
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 tbsp balsamic vinegar
  • 1 tbsp sumac
  • ½ tsp chili flakes
  • salt to taste

Instructions

  1. Boil whole unpeeled potatoes in salted water until just tender but not mushy—about 20 minutes.
  2. Drain the potatoes and let them cool slightly. Peel and chop into bite-sized cubes.
  3. In a large bowl, combine potatoes, red onion, parsley, pickles, black olives, capers, and sun-dried tomatoes.
  4. Drizzle with olive oil and balsamic vinegar. Add salt, chili flakes, and sumac.
  5. Toss gently to coat the potatoes without breaking them.
  6. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. Serve and enjoy.

Notes

  • Use Yukon gold or red potatoes for best texture.
  • Adjust chili flakes for more or less heat.
  • Let potatoes cool slightly before peeling to avoid mushiness.
