Tip

Know-how
The white wine vinegar makes it a perfect match for fish.

Method

  1. Cut the potatoes into cubes but keep the skin on. Cook in a pan of simmering salted water until just tender, about 10-15 minutes, and then drain. Add back to the pan with the parsley and some seasoning and crush lightly with a masher or the back of a fork.

  2. Add a splash of white wine vinegar and a slug of olive oil and gently mix in. Add more of each if it needs it.
