WILD GARLIC PESTO POTATO SALAD

by Zars Kitchen Admin

The  creaminess of perfectly steamed new potatoes tossed with my rich and vibrant pesto made from fresh wild garlic, Parmesan cheese, olive oil, toasted pine nuts, rocket and lemon is the perfect addition to any spring or summer meal!

I’ve topped my salad with some quails eggs and home-grown edible flowers for a bit of bougieness but this is totally not necessary… regular hard boiled eggs would be perfect!
