What happens when Greece’s famous Naxos potatoes meet ripe summer tomatoes, red onions, cucumber, great Greek olive oil, and omega-3-rich sardines? You get one of the simplest, healthiest, and most delicious dishes of the Mediterranean diet.
In this full recipe video from my PBS series *My Greek Table*, I’m sharing a traditional island potato salad from Naxos — Greece’s potato-growing heartland in the Cyclades. It’s rustic Greek cooking at its best: seasonal vegetables, exceptional olive oil, fresh oregano, and protein-rich sardines or anchovies brought together in a dish that’s both nourishing and deeply flavorful.
This is the kind of healthy Greek recipe I grew up eating — simple food with extraordinary ingredients and centuries of culinary wisdom behind it.
