How are the red potatoes with regard to taste? Are they sweeter or about the same as general brown potatoes?
This is a good overview.

I wouldn't call them "sweet", but they're less starchy, less "earthy" and firmer.
They withstand the pressure cooker better, being firmer then the others. Browns would do okay, but might fall apart a bit. Gold/yellow potatoes would definitely fall apart.
Thinking about it, you might be able to do it with sweet potatoes, but that depends on the sauce, really.
