This quick-pickled potato recipe may sound a little unusual, but the oregano and garlic in the pickling vinegar infuse the potatoes with bags of flavour. Paired with olives, capers, sun-dried tomatoes and artichokes, this Mediterranean-inspired salad is a great summer side dish and can be served warm or cold.
