TWICE BAKED OUTDOOR BBQ BABY POTATOES

Steps:

• If you need to par-boil these potatoes first, place them in a large pan of boiling water and cook for about 5 to 8 minutes. Do NOT peel them, but scrub them if necessary and cut any protruding eyes out.
• Drain them well and place them straight on to the BBQ grill/shelf, moving them around all the time with heatproof tongs.
• Or, if they are too small and might fall through the grill, put them in an old frying pan, skillet or cast iron container with a knob of butter, and cook them over the direct heat, again moving them around so they don't over colour in one area.
• I have also placed these potatoes in a double wrapping of tin foil, with a knob of butter and cooked them in the embers of a BBQ - turning them around regularly for about 30 to 45 minutes. (You can also do them this way when you have a wood fire burning in your home during the winter months.).
• Bake them for about 20 to 30 minutes until the skins are well coloured and slightly crispy, and then serve them piping hot with butter and sea salt and black pepper.

LEMON AND GARLIC GRILLED BABY POTATOES

Steps:

• Cut potatoes into small chunks.
• In a bowl, toss the potatoes with oil, garlic, bay leaves, oregano, salt and pepper. Squeeze lemon juice onto the potatoes, then place the rind halves on top. (Can pre-cook potatoes in microwave for about 5 minutes) (May need to add more olive oil)
• Preheat grill. Place potatoes in a small roasting pan or double thickness tin foil pans that have been sprayed with Pam, add the potatoes. Place on grill. Cook until tender, 20 - 30 minutes, stirring so all pieces cook evenly.
• Remove from heat. Remove lemon rind and bay leaves. Add butter and dill and incorporate evenly. Salt and pepper to taste.
• Note: Instead of fresh herbs, you can use 1 tsp dried.
