What Sup: Potatoes, peas and lime with mayo and mint dressing


Great as a side dish with any meat! You will need: olive oil, 2 limes, 2 tbs mayonnaise (the best you can find), 5 large potatoes (peeled, diced and boiled), 1 cup cooked peas and fresh mint leaves.
The trick with this is to add the dressing while the potatoes are still warm so that they absorb the flavours.

In a bowl add mayo the juice of 2 limes and a little zest from 1 lime. Add half cup of olive oil, salt and pepper and whisk together. Taste the dressing before you pour it over warm potatoes and add more lime or oil till you have a good balance of flavour. Lastly add the chopped mint leaves and the peas. Let it cool to room temperature before you serve.
