There's something special about purple foods...there's just not many of them! Eggplant, blueberries, and now my new favorite purple food: purple Peruvian potatoes, otherwise known as fingerling potatoes. I saw these at Wegman's, and I had to have them. I chopped them up, mixed them with some olive oil and freshly chopped garlic, and sprinkled on some rosemary. I put them in the oven for about 30 minutes at 350 degrees, and here's the result:
They were crispy on the outside, and soft on the inside. Fun, pretty, and yummy!

Wow, those are cool. I can occasionally pick up purple sweet potatoes from the market here, but they are much lighter and kind of swirly. Yours stayed so pretty even after cooking!
I totally share your love for purple potatoes!! And that's my favorite way of eating them!
Oh wow those look fun! Do they taste the same as other potatoes?
I love purple potatoes! But unfortunately, I haven't seen any at the market this year...
Oops! That last comment came from me. I was on a work computer and logged in to someone else's account.
I get overly excited every time I see a purple food. Don't know why, but they just make me so happy :o).
