Preparation
Mash the Potatoes
Drain the cooked potatoes and transfer them to a mixing bowl. Add diced yellow pepper, lime juice, and salt. Mash until smooth and creamy.
Make the Sauce
In a small bowl, combine mayonnaise, lime juice, and yellow pepper puree. Mix well until smooth.
Assemble the Causa
Take a portion of the mashed potato mixture and form it into a round base on a plate. Add a layer of the filling on top and then cover with another layer of the mashed potato mixture, forming a dome shape.
Serve
Drizzle the prepared sauce over the top of the causa. Garnish with additional diced vegetables or herbs as desired. Serve cold or at room temperature.
