Number Of Ingredients 13

1 large potato, diced
1 large sweet potato, diced
1 cup corn
1 teaspoon prepared dijon-style mustard
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
3 tablespoons chopped fresh coriander
1 garlic clove, 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

Steps:

  • Place potato pieces into a large saucepan, and cover with salted water. Bring to a boil, turn the heat down, and simmer for 5 minutes approximately
  • Add the sweet potato, and cook about 8-10 minutes more or until potatoes are tender but still firm enough to hold their shape.
  • 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.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together mustard, lime juice, coriander, and garlic. Slowly whisk in oil. Mix in salt and black pepper.
  • Add cooled potatoes, to dressing along with cucumber, and red onion. Toss well. Serve at room temperature or chilled. Toss the peanuts in just before serving.
