Batata Slata Moroccan Potato Salad

this dish takes a slightly different turn depending upon the cook. some, like me prefer more lemon or vinegar. some only use vinegar or lemon due to finances and can't interchange though most of us do exchange them equally. in any case it is a wonderful potato salad that is a bit different than usual. in summer i use the tomato and out of summer i do not. basically if i feel like adding the tomato i do and if i don't, then i don't. this is easy to make as most ingredients are already home and we often serve this with our fall and winter soups and crusty baguette. c.2005
