  • 3 large russet potatoes
  • ¾ cup lemon juice
  • ¼ cup olive oil

  • 3 tablespoon fresh parsley, cut coarsely
  • 1 teaspoon allspice
  • salt to taste

Instructions

  • Peel and quarter potatoes. Simmer for 20-30 minutes in a large pot, until a fork easily pierces potatoes.
  • Cut potatoes into smaller pieces. Toss with the lemon juice, olive oil, herbs, and spices.
