There is a raw potato salad in our upper Burma(Monywa). It also peel, slices and then wash with water. Mix with the lemon juice and some salt. And then wash with water again.Add the roasted peanut,roasted yellow bean flour,dry red chilly fried oil,fish sauce, dry shrimp flour, and roasted seesame seed and slice raw garlic and slice raw chilly and some lemon juice.Oh! very tasty.

Kirsti, France
My adult son and I had lemon potatoes for lunch. I wanted to try the recipe because the combination of lemon and potatoes was so odd to me. Like Pedro I was impolite enough to doubt about the flavour. I thought I would be like Asmaa, who didn't like it. I chose to make it for lunch because my husband wasn't there and I know he doesn't like lemon. Like Evaldas I thought I'd better not upset any family member. Then, yesterday I bought bottled red chili because there was no fresh in my local super market. Today at noon, when my ingredients were ready I took the frying pan and a clock and executed the programme, the recipe, I mean. The result was not bad. If I hadn't cooked myself I am not sure I would have been able to recognise I was eating potatoes, though! Elena, they were not raw but felt a little "al dente". Now I've got an idea. If I wasn't sure I had potatoes, maybe my husband would not recognise the lemon, especially if I add some more spices, as Yogesh suggests. Next time I'll add the spices Rohini mentioned.

Rogeye, Australia
