Boiled Potatoes with Peas and Lemon

Bring a medium–large pot of water to a boil and season it heavily with salt and white distilled vinegar (a generous glug, taste the water, should be slightly acidulated), if you like (this is optional but will impart a good, deep tang to the finished boiled potato).

Drain and let cool enough to halve potatoes lengthwise. Scatter them on a large plate or shallow bowl and top with the peas and spring onion/scallion. Season with salt, zest the lemon over everything, juice the lemon over everything, give it lots of olive oil to cover, and finish with black pepper.

This one doesn’t need herbs, but it goes without saying that dill would be perfect here.
