Method

1. Cook the potatoes in a pan of boiling salted water for 15 minutes, then add the beans and cook for a further 3 minutes until tender but still crisp. Cool under running cold water, then drain and leave to cool.

2. Cut the potatoes into chunks and toss gently in a serving bowl with the salad onions, olives and salami.

3. Make the dressing; mix together the oil, vinegar, mint and mustard; season to taste. Pour over the potato salad and lightly toss together. Divide between two serving plates and serve.
