Preparation Steps
- Begin by thoroughly washing the Yukon Gold or Red potatoes under cold running water. Use a vegetable brush to scrub away any dirt, ensuring they're completely clean. Once prepped, set aside your vegetables and grab a large pot.
- Place the cleaned potatoes into the large pot and cover them with cold water. Add a generous pinch of salt to the water. Turn the heat to high and bring the water to a rolling boil, then reduce to a simmer. Cook for 15-20 minutes until the potatoes are fork-tender but still hold their shape. Drain and let them cool slightly.
- While the potatoes cool, whisk together extra-virgin olive oil, fresh lemon juice, sumac, salt, and black pepper in a medium bowl.
- Once the potatoes have cooled enough to handle, cut them into bite-sized cubes. Aim for uniform pieces so they mix well with the other ingredients.
- In the bowl with the cubed potatoes, add chopped parsley, minced red onion, diced cucumber, halved tomatoes, black olives, and crumbled feta cheese.
- Pour the prepared dressing over the potato and vegetable mixture. Gently toss it all together to ensure every cube is beautifully coated without mashing the potatoes.
- Taste your Turkish Potato Salad and adjust the seasoning if necessary. Let the salad rest for at least one hour before serving.
- Serve your Turkish Potato Salad either at room temperature or chilled.
