SPICY CHINESE POTATO SALAD

Spicy Chinese Potato Salad image

I saw a recipe like this on another web site. There were two ingredients I did not like...so by the time I changed that, I was also changing other things and came up with this....a potato salad WITHOUT the white stuff! UPDATE: My thanks to Susie D for reviewing recipe and for her honesty about the oil. It was not oily when I put it together and perhaps that was due to mixing while the potatoes were still very warm, thus absorbing the oil.
