These delicious smashed pink potatoes with pink pepper, fresh herbs and smoked paprika make a nice vegan side for almost anything.
They work especially well with soy satay and they are delicious with apricot mustard sauce.
I created them for the food photography challenge by the little plantation and then we liked them so much, I knew you would, too. So I put the recipe on the blog.
