I often make a Kumara Salad that has bananas in it. It is very similar to this recipe:

Sometimes I add pieces of orange and whether you add curry powder, is your choice.
If you prefer a lighter dressing you could use a lemon vinaigrette.
I like the idea of the coconut cream and lime juice dressing that TPANDAV has posted.

One of my pet hates is recipes which call for kumara but don't specify which type! Makes such a huge difference. I make a kumara salad (purple) with cashews, spring onions and a dressing similar to J1.
Just a note, I took my salad to a family dinner a while back and it was the only thing the vegetarian aunt could eat, everything else had bacon in it! So I'd look for other salty influences, olives, (nuts), capers, feta etc, but not meat, but I guess that might just be our family!

I've just come across and printed off this Jan Bilton Cool Kumara, Avacado & Ginger salad which has an Asian flavour to it. I think I'd play around with the dressing to cut back on the sweet chilli sauce though. [www.janbilton.co.nz]
A lot of lovely kumara salad ideas in the posts above which I've also printed off (thankyou). I love kumara!

I've been meaning to try Chelsea Winter's recipe, which does specify the type of kumara to use :-)
