Ingredients

  • 1 potato (medium size or 2 small)
  • 1 can white beans (cannellini) (or Spanish beans)
  • 1 oxheart tomato (large)
  • 1 red Tropea onion
  • 1 stalk celery (with leaves)
  • green olives (5 – 6)
  • sweet corn, canned, drained (to taste)
  • extra virgin olive oil
  • as needed salt
  • as needed pepper

Tools

To make the Cannellini Bean, Cherry Tomato, and Potato Salad you only need:

  • 1 Pot

Steps

  • First, boil the potato in plenty of salted water for about 20 – 30 minutes: cooking times may vary depending on the size of the potatoes.

  • In fact, the larger the potato, the longer it takes. Still, do the toothpick test. If inserting a toothpick (or fork), it goes in easily, then it means it’s cooked.

  • To speed up cooking, you can use the pressure cooker: very practical and easy to use, it has the advantage of cooking food really fast. From the moment it starts to whistle, count 12 minutes. Once cooked, remove the skin and let them cool.

  • Meanwhile, drain the cannellini beans from the preservation water and let them dry. Then, wash the celery stalk and cut it into slices: do not throw away the leaves, add them, chopped (not all of them, if there are too many), to the salad.

  • Then, slice the Tropea onion and cube the oxheart tomato: put everything in a large bowl, add the olives, beans, celery, corn, season with salt and a sprinkle of pepper (if desired), a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil and serve. Finally, the salad is ready. Enjoy your meal!
