Skordalia with walnuts and potatoes

Boil the potatoes with their skin.

Meanwhile blend the walnuts to a smoth paste in a food processor.

Finely chop the garlic.

Using a mortar and pestle beat the garlic pieces with the ground walnut paste until they are fully combined and get a creamy consistency (I do that while the potatoes are boiling).

When the potatoes are ready, peel them and mash them in the low setting of the blender. Then add the mixture of garlic and walnuts plus the vinegar. When they are thoroughly combined add alternatively the oil and the lemon and mix by hand until you achieve the desired taste. Then the salt and pepper and it is ready.

Place in the fridge for at least an hour before you serve.
