1 large russet potato,
peeled
and quartered
1 large sweet potato, peeled
and quartered
1 cup corn
1 teaspoon prepared
Dijon-style mustard
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
3 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
|
1 clove garlic, minced
3 tablespoons canola oil
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 cucumber, halved lengthwise
and chopped
1/2 red onion, thinly sliced
1/4 cup finely chopped peanuts
|
Directions
1 Place the Russet potato pieces into a large
saucepan,
and cover with salted water. Bring
to a boil, turn the
heat down, and simmer for 10
minutes. Add the sweet potato,
and cook about 15 minutes more.
Remove a piece of each
potato, and cut it in half to see
if it is cooked enough. Once
the potatoes are tender, add corn
kernels; cook another 30
seconds. Drain through a colander.
Fill the saucepan with cold
water, and drop vegetables into
water. Cool for 5 minutes,
and drain.
2 In a large bowl, whisk together mustard, lime
juice,
cilantro, and garlic. Slowly whisk
in oil. Mix in salt and
black pepper.
3 Cut cooled potatoes into 1 inch cubes, and add to
dressing along with cucumber, and
red onion. Toss well. Serve
at room temperature or chilled.
Toss the peanuts in just
before serving.
