Caribbean Sweet Potato Salad image

This is a 90's potato salad - a new and improved, redone, much better potato salad. Not only does it have a sweet potato, in addition to a Russet potato, but it also contains corn, cucumber, and peanuts! Corn oil will do if you don't have canola.

1 large russet potatoes
1 large sweet potatoes
1 c corn, fresh
1 cucumber
1/2 red onion
TOPPING
1/4 c peanuts, dry roasted
DRESSING:
1 tsp dijon mustard
2 Tbsp lime juice
1 clove garlic
