Malanga, Black Bean and Pepper Salad image

Malanga is a tropical root vegetable that is used like a potato and is especially delish in this salad. Unfortunately, it turns a drab shade of brown when boiled. The recipe is from The Purple Kiwi Cookbook by Frieda's (the fruit and vegetable importer). It's a fun, adventurous cookbook.

I'm not a big fan of black beans, but I love this salad. The malanga and peppers are so flavorful that they make up for the black beans.

This salad is a great way to use up leftover malanga. I always have some leftover after I make mofongo.

I'm not a big fan of malanga, but I decided to give this recipe a try anyway. I'm glad I did! The malanga was actually really good in this salad. It was soft and creamy, and it paired well with the black beans and peppers.
