Salad with boiled potatoes and fish

First of all, you need to peel the potatoes, rinse them with cold water and cut them evenly into cubes. For salad, new potatoes are best suited, since they keep their shape well and do not boil. However, you can take any one.

Put the potatoes in a saucepan, pour water and put on medium heat. Bring the water to a boil, collect the foam and reduce the heat to a minimum. At the end of cooking, add salt to taste. The cooking time depends on the potato variety. Readiness can be checked by piercing a piece with a knife or fork.

While the potatoes are cooking, prepare the sauce for her. To do this, rinse the lemon and dry it. Squeeze one half of the lemon into a bowl, and remove the zest from the second and add it to the same place. Also pour olive oil, wine vinegar, salt and ground black pepper into a bowl. Dry the capers and finely chop them, and then also add to the sauce. Mix all the ingredients well.

As soon as the potatoes are ready, drain the water from them and cool a little. Then put the cubes of boiled potatoes in a bowl with sauce and mix, trying to cover each piece of potatoes.

Prepare yogurt salad dressing. To do this, you will need low-fat yogurt without additives. Grate horseradish and mix with yogurt. You can use white horseradish from a jar. Squeeze the juice from the remaining half of the lemon into the yogurt dressing, add salt and pepper and mix everything again.

Assemble the salad on a large platter. Put the watercress on the bottom of the plate (pre-wash and dry, if necessary). Spread the potato cubes in the sauce on top of the leaves.

Separate the smoked salmon from the bones and scatter in small pieces over the potatoes.

Fill the salad with yogurt dressing.

You can serve this salad with boiled potatoes and smoked salmon right away. An ideal addition would be a glass of dry white wine.

Bon appetit!
