Put the potatoes in a pot and add cold water to cover the potatoes by 1 inch. Season generously with salt and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce the heat to low and simmer until the potatoes are just tender, about 15 minutes.

Arrange the potatoes, cut sides down, in the pan in a single layer and cook until golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Using tongs, turn the potatoes, cut sides up, and cook until the skins are lightly golden, 2 to 3 minutes more.

Add the olives and sun-dried tomatoes and stir, being careful not to break up the potatoes. Add half of the basil, season with salt and pepper and stir to mix. Transfer to a warmed serving dish or platter and garnish with the remaining basil. Serve immediately. Serves 4.
