Time 40m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 lb yukon gold potato, with peels
1 teaspoon sea salt
1/4 cup wasabi mayonnaise
4 green onions, rinsed and sliced with tops
1/4 cup roasted red pepper
1/4 cup roasted yellow pepper, roasted, drained & chopped
sea salt, to taste
fresh ground pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • Slice potatoes lengthwise, add water to pot. Bring water to a boil and reduce to a simmer. Cook potatoes until slightly undercooked.
  • Pour off hot water and submerge potatoes in cold water.
  • 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.
  • Combine, chill & serve.
  • 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.
