    I have made this 3 times in the last month. After looking for a mayonaise-free potato salad for weeks (can't stand mayonaise!) i have finnaly hit on a winner! It works best alongside bbq's or pan-fried salmon. The only tip i have is allowing it to chill for as long as possible as it is always much better on the second day after a night in the fridge.

    I really liked this but found it too oily. The 2nd time I halved the oil and it was way better. The potatoes were best steamed in their skins and peeled when cool enough to handle.

    A bit of an odd flavour! Wouldn't do it again - prefer a mayo dressing.

    I halved the amount of olive oil (then added a bit more to taste) and added 2 tsps honey to ease the tartness. Very nice alternative to mayonnaisey-style potatos salads. Went well with the bbq thai style salmon recipe and kept in the fridge for two days.
