Mince the garlic, capers and anchovies, then place in a bowl with the oregano, then cover with most of the olive oil and set aside. Finely chop the parsley.

Wash and peel the potatoes and put them in a pot of boiling salted water over medium heat for 15 to 20 minutes or until cooked, but still firm.  When done, rinse the potatoes in cold water until they are cool enough to handle, then strain and pat dry.

Slice the potatoes lengthwise, then across into 1/4 inch pieces and place them in a large mixing bowl, pour in the mixture of garlic, capers and anchovies, add the parsley and a few twists of black  pepper and toss.

Drizzle more olive oil if needed.
