Second, peel the skin from the potatoes and cut them into bite-sized chunks. Chop up the spring onions into even small pieces.
Third, transfer the warm potato chunks, onions, parsley, olives into a salad bowl. Sprinkle with apple cider vinegar and olive oil. Season it with salt and pepper per taste. Gently toss it all well until combined everything together. Taste and add more salt or vinegar if needed.

In that way, they will easily absorb wet ingredients and become more flavorful.In the end, taste the salad as you go to see if it needs more salt. After that mix it well.
