Method

1. Boil the potatoes in salted water, then peel them and let them cool completely
2. When cooled, cut them into small cubes so they don’t fall apart if they are hot
3. In a deep bowl, mash the garlic with salt and chili pepper, then add the lemon juice and olive oil
4. Mix the dressing and add the cold potato cubes, then stir
5. Set the salad aside for a few minutes so the potatoes absorb the dressing
6. Add fresh mint, basil, and chopped green onions and gently toss the salad
7. Serve the potato salad with olive oil drizzled on top; it is eaten with bread and onions or as desired
