Potato, Ham & Cheese Salad

You absolutely cannot go wrong with these classic ingredients. A meal in one!  What really makes the dish is all the ham & cheese gunk that mixes in with vinaigrette; trick is to put more vinaigrette than you think is necessary.

steamed baby potatoes

good quality boiled ham

white cheddar cheese

parsley & chives

dijon vinaigrette (on the thickish side, using cider vinegar)

S&P

poudre de piment d'espelette (cayenne if you must)

1. slice potatoes in halves or quarters when done steaming, depending on size
2. put potatoes into bowl, stir vinaigrette into them while still warm
3. cut up ham and cheese into minces & add to potatoes
4. chop up parsley & chives, add latter, s&p (lots of p!), PP d'E to salad & stir
