    Spicy Sweet Potato Salad


    Source of Recipe

    Recipe Introduction


    This slightly spicy potato salad is a real pick-me-up! It's important to use good mayonnaise in this recipe, and to let the cooked potatoes chill
    overnight before making the salad. Vary the seasoning amounts to suit your taste.


    List of Ingredients




    2 medium sweet potatoes
    1 pound red potatoes
    1 pound Yukon Gold potatoes
    1 large red onion
    2 teaspoons salt
    1 clove garlic, minced
    1 jalapeno chile pepper, seeded and minced
    1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
    1 cup Hellman's mayonnaise
    1 tablespoon curry powder
    1/4 cup chopped parsley
    freshly ground pepper to taste

    Recipe



    Wash, pierce with a fork, and microwave the sweet potatoes and Yukon
    Gold potatoes until tender. Boil the red potatoes in salted water until
    tender. Do not overcook the potatoes, or they will not hold up in the
    salad. Drain red potatoes and chill all three types overnight.
    Peel the sweet potatoes and Yukon Golds, and dice into 1/2 -inch cubes.
    Cut red potatoes into fourths. Place all potatoes into a large bowl.
    Slice red onion thinly and place into a colander. Sprinkle the salt on
    the onion and let it sit in the colander for 30 minutes to drain. Squeeze
    onion to remove excess water, and add to the bowl with the potatoes. Mix in the garlic, jalapeno, lemon juice, mayonnaise, curry powder, parsley and pepper. Chill until ready to serve.
