1 glass (st.) - 250 ml.
3/4 cup (st.) - 180 ml.
2/3 cup (st.) - 160 ml.
1/2 cup (st.) - 125 ml.
1/3 cup (st.) - 80 ml.

Ingredients for the recipe:


For the salad:

  • 900 g of young tri-color or red-skinned potatoes, cut into quarters
  • 110 g dry-cured prosciutto ham, thinly sliced
  • 1 tbsp. extra virgin olive oil
  • Coarse salt

Cooking the dish according to the recipe:


  1. Prepare the salad: Preheat the oven to 200 degrees Celsius (400 degrees Fahrenheit). Grease a baking sheet with olive oil and spread the prosciutto in a single layer. Bake for 12-14 minutes, until the fat has rendered and the prosciutto is crispy. Transfer the prosciutto to a wire rack and cool completely, then tear into pieces and set aside.
  2. Meanwhile, fill a large saucepan with cold water, add the potatoes and a pinch of salt.

    Bring the water to a boil, reduce the heat to low, and simmer for 15 minutes, until the potatoes are tender and easily pierced with a fork. (They will continue to cook after you remove them from the water—you don't want to end up with mashed potato salad!) Drain the water using a colander placed over an empty saucepan (with the stove off) and allow the excess moisture to evaporate from the potatoes.

  3. Prepare the dressing: In a large bowl, mix mayonnaise, green onions, sugar, paprika, mustard, and vinegar. Taste, then add salt and a few pinches of pepper.
  4. Add the potatoes to the bowl with the dressing and toss gently. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour. Sprinkle with crispy prosciutto before serving.
