The spices help the flavor, but be warned that purple potatoes often taste musty.
We made the purple mashed, with butter and cream and veggie stock. It was delicious.
However, after about 3 days of refrigeration the leftovers turned bright blueberry color. ?????
I had these at the Fish Hopper in Hawaii they were outstanding so found them in my local Asian market here in Sunnyvale Ca. so I am cooking tonight and see if they taste as good .
