GRILLED POTATOES

Steps:

Add the potatoes to the hot grill, then brush with the remaining oil mixture. Grill, flipping the potatoes once, until golden brown, about 5 minutes per side.
• Mash together the garlic and 1/2 teaspoon salt with a knife or bench scraper on a cutting board until it is a paste. Add the garlic to a small saucepan with the oil, chives, parsley, lemon juice and remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt. Cook over medium-low heat until the ingredients have combined, 3 to 4 minutes. Use as a marinade for potatoes, brush on rolls before toasting or brush on proteins for extra flavor.

GRILLED SWEET POTATO SALAD

Steps:

• Preheat a grill to medium heat.
• Sprinkle the potatoes with salt and pepper and toss with enough olive oil to coat. Grill the potatoes until caramelized, about 4 minutes per side. Place them on the top rack and close the grill, allowing them to finish cooking through, about 20 minutes more. Remove the potatoes from the grill and allow them to come to room temperature.
• To make the vinaigrette, whisk together the vinegar, capers, honey, mustard and olive oil in a small bowl. Season with salt and pepper. Dice the potatoes into large chunks and toss in a bowl with the scallions and walnuts. Season with salt and pepper.
• Dress the potatoes with enough vinaigrette to coat the salad. Top with the apples, chives, sesame seeds, cilantro and parsley and serve.

ROASTED RUSSET & SWEET POTATO WEDGES

Steps:

• Cut each russet and sweet potato lengthwise into eight wedges; place in two greased 15x10x1-in. baking pans. Drizzle with oil. Combine the seasonings; sprinkle over potatoes and toss to coat., Bake at 400° for 25-30 minutes or until tender, turning once. , In a small bowl, combine the dip ingredients. Serve with potatoes.

RUSSET POTATO FANS

Steps:

• 1. Throughly wash the potatoes with the skins intact. Chef's Note: To keep the cooking stable, choose potatoes of uniform size and shape. Chef's Note: Some people remove the skin, but I prefer to leave the skins on.
• 2. Slice a small section off the bottom of the potato. This serves two functions: One, it will keep the spud from rolling around, and two, when they bake it helps the slices to fan out.
• 3. Use a sharp knife and cut the fans into the potato, crosswise, and about 1/4 thick, leaving about 1/4 of the bottom intact. Rinse in cold water and allow to air dry for about an hour. Chef's Note: During the drying process see if you can gently begin to fan out the potato slices.
• 4. Add the parmesan cheese, breadcrumbs, 1 tablespoon of the melted butter, and paprika into a small bowl and then mix until throughly combined.
• 5. Take 3 tablespoons of the melted butter, and brush into each of the potatoes; making sure to get in in-between each one of the fan slices.
• 6. Take the breadcrumb mixture, and pat 1/4 on the top of each of the potatoes. Sprinkle the tops with some big flakes of sea salt... to your taste.
• 7. Place a rack in the lower position, and preheat your oven to 430f (220c).
• 8. Place the potatoes in a lightly oiled baking dish, cover with foil, and then bake, covered, for about 40 minutes. Chef's Note: At the CIA we used an arched baking rack, so the potatoes didn't bake on a flat surface, and the arch in the rack helped to fan out the slices... neat trick.
• 9. Remove foil, and continue baking for about 15 additional minutes, or until the skin turns crispy.
• 10. Plate/Prepare This is, of course, a side dish, so use it as your one starch in just about any meal. As a matter of fact, I've taken these out of the oven, smothered them in my homemade chili recipe, and made it a meal... Keep the faith, and keep cooking...
