Romanian potato salad. Excellent with grilled meat or chicken cutlets. Pickled red peppers are more traditional but roasted are probably easier to find in the U.S.

SALATA ORIENTALA
This simple potato salad has nothing to do with the Orient. It's easy to make, needs few ingredients and can be safely taken to picnics because there is no mayo or eggs in it. I have sometimes used Wishbone Italian dressing in place of the oil/vinegar dressing. Good that way, too. The recipe is in most Romanian cookbooks but don't know if it started out life as an ethnic Romanian recipe. Have a feeling there's a little French in there...from a stripped down Salad Nicoise maybe?
