Mango and Potato Salad

Um, I can hear you.  Laughing at the fact the first recipe of the new year uses mangoes.   Yes, mangoes are one of my favorite fruits.  And I like to use them in unusual ways. So when I saw a dish that combined them with potatoes I thought... "Oh the yeah!  We're having that."  It is fantastic!  Sweet mangoes, tender potatoes, and caramelized onions with a spicy twist and tweak.

This recipe comes with a caveat... the kids weren't impressed.  But that just left more for the adults!  It is excellent hot or cold.

Mango and Potato Salad

1 tsp olive oil
1 onion, sliced
1 tsp ground cumin
1 tsp ground corriander
1 mango, peeled and diced
2 Tbsp honey
2 Tbsp vinegar
3 lbs new potatoes, boiled, cut into bite sized pieces ( I prefer red)

Heat oil in skillet over low heat and add onions.  Caramelize the onions.  When the onions are caramelized add the spices and mango and cook for 5 minutes.  Remove from heat and add the honey and vinegar.  Stir well and pour over potatoes, stirring gently to coat the potatoes.


Enjoy!

This really isn't too far fetched from a hot German potato salad with those sweet and sour flavors together!
