Next, prepare the herbs and onion: peel and chop the onion, and finely chop the herbs (chives, dill and parsley) . Put everything into a big bowl.
Step 3
Next, chop the asparagus into inch-size pieces. Cook the asparagus and the peas in boiling water for around 4 minutes- once cooked, drain and add to cold water to stop the cooking process. Let cool completely.
Step 4
Once the peas and asparagus are cooled, add to the bowl with the herbs.
Next, wash and thinly slice the radish, combine with the other ingredients.
Step 5
Once the potatoes are cooked, remove from the oven, set aside and let cool.

Once the potatoes are cooled, add to the bowl, alongside the juice of half of a lemon and remaining olive oil. Add salt and pepper to taste. Mix everything well.
The salad is now ready to serve. Enjoy!
