Step-by-step
- Cover potatoes with cold water in a pot. Bring to a boil and simmer until just tender, about 10 minutes. Drain and cool until you are able to handle them.
- While the potatoes are cooling make the dressing. In a bowl mix the garlic and herb soft cheese, olive oil and lemon to make a dressing. Taste and add salt and pepper to taste.
- Once the potatoes are cool enough to handle, cut the potatoes in half and place all in a large mixing bowl with the celery, red onion and capers.
- Pour the dressing over the potatoes and gently mix until everything is combined.
- Transfer to a serving bowl, garnish with chopped fresh herbs and enjoy.
