PETE'S GRILLED NEW POTATOES
Source of Recipe
The Birmingham News, submitted to this forum by Mark
List of Ingredients
2 Pounds red or yellow new potatoes (use largest size - the broader slices are less likely to slip through the grill rack)
3 to 4 Tablespoons vegetable or olive oil
1/4 to 1/2 Teaspoon salt
1/2 to 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Recipe
Rinse potatoes and damp-dry with a kitchen towl. On a cutting board or with a mandoline, slice potatoes 1/4 inch thick. Add them to a large
bowl and drizzle with oil, salt and pepper; mix with your hands, making sure the slices are well-coated. (If you must, mix with a wooden utensil
or something that is least likely to gouge the potatoes.)
Prepare a medium fire in a grill (See note). Meanwhile, cook the potatoes in a steamer, 3 to 4 minutes from the time the water begins to boil;
the flesh of the potatoes will become slightly opaque. Remove potatoes from the steamer and place the slices on the grill, cooking for about 4
minutes a side until well-browned.
Note: To check grill temperature, count the seconds you can hold your hand, palm side down, 2 to 3 inches above the rack until it feels
uncomfortable: 4 seconds for medium
