Potato And Green Banana Salad Recipes

Steps:

• Cook potato cubes in boiling, salted water until firm-tender, about 8 to 10 minutes.
• Add sliced bananas to the potato pot during the last minute of cooking. Drain and rinse with cold water
• In a large serving bowl, combine the bananas and potatoes with sliced onions, and olives.
• In a small bowl, whisk together the oil, vinegar, mustard, sugar, salt and pepper. Pour this dressing over the salad.
• Cover and refrigerate at least 2 hours before serving.

Steps:

• Put the potatoes in a large pot and add water to cover; season with salt. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer until tender, about 12 minutes. Drain and let cool.
• Combine the mayonnaise, sour cream, parsley, chives and tarragon in a blender. Add the anchovies, garlic, capers, lemon juice, ½ teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper; puree until smooth.
• Combine the potatoes, hard-boiled eggs, bacon, scallions and celery in a large bowl. Add about 1 cup of the dressing and toss to coat; season with salt and pepper.

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Cut the ends off of the bananas, and make a slit lengthwise down the peel. Cook bananas in boiling water until tender (similar to a potato). Drain, cool, and remove peels. Cut into small chunks and place in a serving bowl. Drizzle 1 tablespoon of olive oil over the pieces, and stir to coat.
• Meanwhile, heat the remaining tablespoon of oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add shrimp and crab, and fry until cooked through, about 5 minutes. Set aside to cool.
• Add onions, green pepper and seafood to the bananas in the bowl. In a separate bowl, whisk together the red wine vinegar, sugar and bacon pieces. Pour this mixture over the bananas, and toss lightly to coat. Season with salt and pepper. Garnish with slices of hard-cooked egg if desired.

Steps:

• Heat bananas, the 2 cups of water and salt to boiling; reduce heat. Cover and simmer until bananas are tender, about 5 minutes. Drain and cool.
• Cut bananas crosswise into 1/2" slices. Toss bananas and remaining ingredients with Vinaigrette Dressing.
