BC Poutine! (Grilled New Potatoes and Cheese Curds)
~ something I tried one day and fell in love with!
An easy way to make great tasting potatoes!


Ingredients:


½ lb. (225g) each red and white potatoes approximately 8
3+ Tbsp of an oil based salad dressing (I apply liberally)
1-2 70g packets of cheese curds (of course available at the shop)


Preparation and cooking:


Place potatoes in the centre of a large sheet of heavy-duty foil


Drizzle/pour on salad dressing


Wrap/seal potatoes in foil (I use a second piece of wrap to minimize spillage onto my BBQ grill.


Grill each side 9-10 minutes until potatoes are tender (I prick with a knife or a fork through the foil to test tenderness)


When done open packet and top with cheese curds.


Rewrap the foil and place back on the BBQ for a few minutes to melt the cheese.


Either serve in foil wrap or transfer to a serving platter.


Other additives:


Onion slices are great (mix with the potatoes from the beginning)
Minced garlic for some extra tanginess
Hot chili flakes for added spice


Pairings:


It’s summer so a beer, a margarita, a cold glass of white … you get the picture!
