2 lbs fingerling potatoes, cut into 3/4 inch chunks
2 avocados
2 tablespoons lime juice, from a lime or two
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 teaspoon ground cayenne pepper (optional)
1 plum tomato, chopped
1 small red onion, diced small
1 smallish cucumber, diced very small
Scallions for garnish (optional)
Put potatoes in a pot and cover with water. Cover pot, bring water
to a boil. Lower the heat to a rolling boil and cook for 15 to 20
minutes, until potatoes are easily pierced with a fork. Drain and set
aside to cool.
Once potatoes have cooled, prepare the dressing. Split the avocado
in half, remove the seed and scoop the yumminess into the food
processor. Add the lime juice and salt and puree until smooth, scraping
down the sides with a spatula as needed. Once smooth and creamy, add
the tomato and onion. Pulse until they are incorporated but not
completely blended. You should still be able to see the tomato and
onion.
Put the potatoes and cucumbers in a large mixing bowl and mix them
up. Add the dressing and mix well. Taste for salt and spice. Wrap
tightly and chill until ready to use. Top with scallions, if you like.
