- CHILI-RUBBED POTATO SALAD
- Preparation time: 20 minutes
- Cooking time: 20 minutes
- Yield: 4 to 6 servings
-
- This is at its very best when served at room temperature, within an hour or
- two after it has been prepared.
-
- 1 1/2 pounds tiny red new potatoes
- 1 1/2 tablespoons bacon fat or olive oil
- 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
- 4 green onions, thinly sliced
- 1 small red bell pepper, finely diced
- 1 tablespoon each: plain yogurt, mayonnaise
- 1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro
- Salt to taste
-
- 1. Cook whole, unpeeled potatoes in boiling water until they are just
- tender, 10 to 16 minutes, depending on size. Do not overcook. Drain; cut
- the smallest potatoes in half and larger ones into quarters. Potatoes can
- be cooked a day in advance and refrigerated; bring to room temperature
- before continuing.
-
- 2. Heat fat or oil in a large skillet over high heat. When it is hot, add
- potatoes. Cook, shaking pan often, just until they begin to brown at the
- edges, 4 to 5 minutes.
-
- 3. Transfer potatoes to a mixing bowl and toss with chili powder while they
- are hot. Add green onions, bell pepper, yogurt and mayonnaise and mix
- lightly. Add cilantro and salt to taste. Hold at room temperature until
- serving time, 1 to 2 hours.
