1/4 cup wasabi mayonnaise
4 green onions, rinsed and sliced with tops

Once cool to touch, cut into bite sized chunks or break apart into medium pieces.
Add wasabi mayo, sliced onions and chopped peppers. Toss to coat potatoes. Add salt and pepper to taste.

NOTES:
To reduce the heat factor, cut wasabi mayo with your favorite mayonnaise.
UPDATE: 5/25/08.
If wasabi mayo is not available, wasabi powder can be mixed with mayonnaise to desired taste. It does pack a little "heat".
Fingerling or baby red potatoes can be used.
