Malaga-style potato and orange salad
Type
Gastronomy & Flavors
Ensalada malagueña is a refreshing cold salad that perfectly blends the flavors of the sea and the land. This traditional dish from Málaga combines boiled potatoes, juicy orange segments, green olives, onion, and—often—salt cod (bacalao), all dressed with local extra virgin olive oil. Served cold, it's a staple of spring and summer tables. Rooted in the city’s fishing history and citrus-growing tradition, this salad is light, nourishing, and full of Andalusian character. Simple yet surprising, it reflects the essence of Málaga's Mediterranean diet.
