  1. A fresh and delicious take on the potato salad. I loved the lime/cilantro flavour. Omitted the hot pepper as kids were dining as well. Will make again! Made for 'PRMR
     
  2. It was delicious. I used baby new potatoes instead. made the salad in the morning and eat it at night. Very flavour full. Everybody loved it.
     
  3. Was good; just not spicy enough for my taste. Would recommend chili, cumin, garlic and a touch of hot sauce to the vinaigrette for that extra punch (from a very similar recipe). Try corn and sliced black olives also for a variation. Since I'm from Texas I like really spicy food so the extra spices should be to taste.
     
  4. Wow, I really loved the coriander and lime combination. Really tasty!
     
  5. I love this tater salad, I did add in the jalapeno and it took this over the top, I omitted the cilantro as I did not have any to add in, I cooked some garlic cloves in with the potatoes then mashed them in the oil before adding to the salad, I will make again soon, thanks for sharing appley!
