• Grease your baking tray with olive oil, and get the potatoes out of the pot and onto the baking tray.

• Chop the mint and crumble the feta and add to the potatoes, drizzle over the dressing and toss to mix, season well with black pepper and salt if desired, not forgetting the feta can be a bit salty.
