I lived in the Canary Islands for ten years and am reminded in a small way of that happy time whenever I make my former neighbor's spicy potatoes (tradition has it that the real thing is cooked in sea water). I hope that you will enjoy them--they go wonderfully well with grilled fish and meat.
Can be prepared in 45 minutes or less.

Ingredients
Preparation
In a saucepan combine the potatoes, unpeeled, with enough cold water to cover them by 1 inch, bring the water to a boil, and simmer the potatoes for 15 to 20 minutes, or until they are just tender. In a small bowl whisk together the oil, the vinegar, the garlic, the cumin, the paprika, and the red pepper flakes until the dressing is combined well. Drain the potatoes, pat them dry, and in a bowl toss them with the dressing, the scallions, the parsley, and salt and pepper to taste.
