I’ll always have a pleasant association with this classic Indonesian salad platter, as it was the first meal I had on my first trip to Paris.

Blue potatoes are surprisingly easy to find, if you look for them, but if you can’t find them, simply substitute two additional medium sweet potatoes. Photo by Susan Voisin, FatFree Vegan Kitchen.
