List of Ingredients




1 pound boiling potatoes, halved (leave skin on)
5 garlic cloves
1 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons good-quality red wine vinegar
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
¾-to-1 cup extra-virgin olive oil



Recipe



In a large saucepan, bring salted water to a boil. Add the potatoes and cook 15 minutes, or until tender. Drain and cool.

Peel the potatoes; push them through a ricer into a bowl.

Pound the garlic with salt in a mortar and pestle until smooth, and add to the potatoes. Gradually add the vinegar, lemon juice, and 3/4 cup of the oil, pounding or stirring constantly. Taste and season with salt and freshly ground pepper to taste, and add more oil if desired.
