Greek Salad with Crispy Potatoes and Sesame Crusted Goat’s Cheese

A refreshing take on a Greek salad, this Cretan-inspired dish features creamy sesame-coated goat cheese, briny olives, tangy capers, and crisp fresh vegetables, all brought together with a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil and lemon juice. Instead of traditional rusks, crispy potatoes add a delicious crunch, making this a perfect balance of texture and bold Mediterranean flavours.

Notes

Pro Tip✨: For the best flavour, let the salad sit for 5-10 minutes before serving—this allows the lemon juice and olive oil to meld with the fresh herbs and veggies, enhancing the taste.

Lovely flavours going on and so simple! Dem’s tips for the goat’s cheese balls includes chilling the balls after rolling and patting dry with kitchen towel to help the sesame seeds stick better! 👌🏻🤤🩷
