   Boil potatoes in their jackets until barely tender.  Cool enough to handle,
   cut into generous bite-size pieces while still warm.  Place potatoes in a
   large salad bowl along with onion rings and green pepper; mix well.  Add
   parsley and lemon juice; carefully toss again.  Dribble oil over the
   vegetables and season to taste with salt, pepper and cayenne pepper; toss
   and set aside for several hours for salad ingredients to mellow.  If
   refrigerated, bring to room temperature before serving.  (Goes well with
   roasted lamb, chicken or simple fish recipes).
   
   Serves 8 to 12.
