IMG_3213Potato rounds in different colors are a fun way to serve spuds.  Alternate the colored rounds on dinner plates or a family style platter to add a creative touch to your meal.  Also a great base for an hors d’ oeuvre.

2 purple potatoes-wash
2 golden potatoes-wash
1-2 tbsp oil
1/4-1/2 tsp salt
a few grinds of pepper

Slice raw potatoes into rounds-leaving skin on.  Place potato rounds in a large bowl and toss in oil and seasonings.  Lay in a single layer on a parchment covered sheet pan.  Roast in a preheated 400° oven for 25-40 minutes until lightly golden.  Serve immediately or let cool and top with olive tapenade or olive muffalata.

    Rachel, the taste and texture are quite similar. The dark, exotic color provide additional antioxidants as well as visual appeal. I prefer to roast them, when boiled the purple potatoes fade.

    The purple potatoes add interesting color. Is their taste or texture different than “regular” potatoes?
