I don't know if this is really what you are looking for but I have a recipe
for "Yoghurt with Spiced Potatoes" out of my favorite East Indian cookbook.
I have made this dish often and it always seems to be a hit...
3 medium-sized (1lb) firm boiling-type potatoes (scrubbed but not peeled)
2 tablespoons vegatable oil
1 teaspoon black mustard seeds (I have found these to be hard to find)
1 teaspoon cumin seeds
3 tablespoons finely chopped onions
1 teaspoon finely copped fresh hot red or green chili
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh coriander (cilantrio)
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup unflavored yoghurt
Drop the potatoes into enough boiling water to cover them completely and boil
briskly, uncovered, until they are tender but still show some resistance when
pierced with the point of a small, sharp knife. Drain the potatoes in a
colander, peel and cut them into 1/2 inch cubes.
In a heavy 8-inch skillet, heat the vegetable oil over high heat until it
starts to smoke. Stir in the mustard and cumin seeds and, when they crackle
and begin to burst, immediately add the onions. Stirring constantly, add the
chili, coriander and potatoes.
Cook over moderate heat, turning the potatoes frequently with a spoon, until
the cubes are well coated with the spice mixture. Remove the skillet from
the heat and stir in the salt.
Place the yoghurt in a small serving bowl, add the entire contents of the
skillet, and toss gently together. Taste for seasoning, cover tightly,
and refrigerte for at least 1 hour or until completely chilled.
Enjoy,
Roark

Title: Mary Katherine's Potato Salad
Categories: Salads
Yield: 12 Servings
6 lb New potatoes
MMMMM--------------------------DRESSING-------------------------------
2 Eggs
1 c Sugar
1/2 c Vinegar
1 tb Butter, melted
1 tb Celery seed
1 tb Coleman's dry mustard
1/2 c Mayonnaise
Drop tiny new potatoes in boiling, salted water and cook, timing
carefully after the water returns to a boil for six minutes. Potatoes
should be no larger than an English Walnut. Otherwise, cut them into
pieces about that size. After cooking, drain potatoes well, rinse
under cold water, and bring to room temperature.
In saucepan, beat eggs. Stir in sugar and vinegar. Melt butter in
small pan and reserve.
Place the egg mixture over low heat and cook stirring constantly until
thickened to the consistency of heavy cream. Remove from heat.
Stir in the melted butter, along with celery seed and dry mustard.
Place pan in a larger pan of cold water to cool the dressing quickly
and prevent overcooking. When dressing is cooled to room
temperature, combine with mayonnaise to make enough to coat the
potatoes. Add additional mayonnaise as needed.
