My Top Barbecue Suggestions For Potatoes

I’ve adapted this oven recipe to one of my best barbecue suggestions, well at least I think so, and if you like your potatoes then I think that you're in for a treat. I like this recipe for a number of reasons:-

  1. It’s an interesting talking point
  2. You can have the potatoes cooking when the coals are still firing (because there's not fat dripping)
  3. It tastes great!

Barbecue Suggestions - Potatoes

Essentially we're going to make some foil parcels and steam the potatoes in white wine and cream. I guess its a bit like Dauphinoise potatoes but without the garlic or gratin topping. Of course you can add garlic if you wish.

TIP - I ask below that you slice your potatoes thinly. This is really important to get the liquids surrounding as much of the potato as possible so that it cooks in a reasonable time.

I’m going to make a one potato parcel in this batch, so if you need more, just make a few more parcels.

Barbecue Suggestions - Potatoes in Creme Fraiche

Ingredients:-

  • 1 potato sliced thinly
  • 1 tablespoon crème fraiche
  • 1 good lug of dry white wine
  • Salt and pepper
  • Aluminium foil

Method:-

Lay the sliced potatoes on a tea towel and wrap them up for 10 minutes. This takes out some of the moisture and stops the potato slices sticking together. Ten minutes is long enough to do this without the potatoes going brown.

Rip off a good piece of aluminium foil and lay it flat on the table. On one half of the foil, lay out your potato slices so that they are separated and the moisture can flow round them, season with salt and pepper and then spoon the crème fraiche on top.

Fold the foil over a “scrunch” the sides together (a little like making a Cornish Pasty) but before you’ve completely sealed the potatoes in the foil, leave an opening where you pour in the good lug of white wine.

Now scrunch and completely seal the foil, pop it on the grill and leave it for 40 minutes while the coals make ready for the meat.

You can then put to one side and open when the main course is ready because provided you don't open the parcel the contents will stay hot for planty of time.

You can do one big parcel or why not make a personal parcel for each diner?
