Olive Oil Martini
By Kareem Assaf
A classic, extra juicy, super easy potato salad that reminds you of your backyard barbecue childhood memories. Here's how to make it.
Ingredients
- 2-3 Boiled potatoes, cubed
- 1-2 Tomatoes
- 1/2 Medium green pepper
- 2-3 Green onions
- 1/2 Medium cucumber
- 3-4 Radishes
- 1/3 Cup chopped parsley
- 2 Tbsp fresh or dried mint1 Clove garlic
- 1/2 Cup lemon juice
- 3-4 Tbsp olive oil
- 1/3 Tsp salt, to taste
Directions
A few days before your planned soiree make the olive oil infused gin. In a large container sealable lid, pour in the gin, olive oil and shake vigorously. Then add in the herbs and allow to infuse on the counter for 12 hrs.
Remove the herbs and pour the infused gin into a freezer safe container, for at least another 12hrs. The olive oil will freeze and separate from the gin. Remove from the freezer and quickly strain the gin through a very fine strainer. The point is to remove the olive oil solids from the gin for a clear liquid. You can repeat this process as necessary but keeping the mixture in the freezer helps the fat and alcohol separate.
