    | 1. Cut any large potatoes in half to speed up the cooking. | 2. Put the potatoes in a large saucepan, completely cover with water and add salt. | 3. Bring to a boil. | 4. Cover and simmer over medium-low heat until a knife can pierce the center of the largest potato easily and the potato falls from the knife when lifted, about 25 minutes. | 5. Meanwhile prepare the dressing: In a small bowl whisk 2 tablespoons lemon juice with a pinch of salt, pepper, and cayenne pepper. | 6. Add 3 tablespoons olive oil and whisk again. | 7. Drain the potatoes in a colander, rinse them briefly and leave just until cool enough to handle. | 8. Peel them if you like, and cut them into 1 inch cubes. | 9. Put them in a large bowl and add the onions, 3 tablespoons dressing and a sprinkling of salt and pepper. | 10. With a rubber spatula, fold together gently but thoroughly. | 11. Let potatoes cool to room temperature. | 12. Dice the tomatoes to add them to the salad, or cut them in thick wedges to use as garnish. | 13. Whisk the remaining dressing, pour it over the potatoes and fold it together. | 14. Add the parsley, capers, half the olives and the diced tomatoes to the potatoes and fold together lightly. | 15. Taste, adjust seasoning, and add more lemon juice and olive oil if needed. | 16. Garnish with the remaining olives and with the tomatoes, if you've cut them in wedges. | 17. Serve at room temperature. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
