These herbed potatoes get their Mediterranean flavor from a combination of olives, mint, and lemon zest. Serve them with a rich lamb stew and your favorite crusty bread.

In a large saucepan, add 2 tsp. of the salt to 3 quarts of water. Add the potatoes and bring to a boil. Cook until tender, 20 to 25 minutes. Drain the potatoes well. Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the potatoes, stirring well to coat. Cook until golden, about 5 minutes per side. Add the olives and mint and toss together. Season with the pepper, zest, and the remaining salt.
