1/2 cup caper berries, rinsed

½ cup semi dried tomatoes, drained

1/3 cup parsley leaves, roughly chopped

¼ cup black olive tapenade

METHOD

 

  1. Preheat oven to 220°C (200°C fan-forced).
  1. Cook potatoes in a large pot of gently boiling water for 25 minutes. Drain.
  1. For the dressing, combine olive oil, garlic, tapenade, anchovies, mixed herbs, salt and pepper together in a small bowl, stirring to combine.
