Peruvian Purple Potatoes

Yep....purple potatoes for dinner!  Maria's Produce Market has a variety of fresh vegetables that I've never ever seen before.  Many of the customers are from India, Peru and Guatemala, thus the unfamiliar offerings.  I don't have the slightest idea how to prepare most of the vegetables they offer but with potatoes.....I thought I'd be safe.  I oven roasted them with fresh rosemary, garlic, olive oil and S&P.  They didn't crisp up like I wanted so I finished them off in a saute pan.  Although they tasted like regular potatoes, the brilliant purple color (the photo doesn't do them justice) made them taste even better!
