Grilled Potato Packets
I throw them on while the grill is preheating so they get a head start, then leave them on while everything else cooks. The longish cook time makes them really sweet, buttery soft, and caramelized in places too. They work great on the coals of a campfire, too.
Everyone gets their own little packet, which they can put directly on their plate, so there's no serving up, and as long as you don't open the packet, they stay warm for ages.
This isn't a recipe as such. It's more of a guide, and there are no measurements. Use as many potatoes as you want in each packet/portion and follow your heart when it comes to adding your seasonings and herbs!
Yes, you can easily make foil-packet potatoes in the oven. Follow the directions to create the foil packets, set them on a baking tray, then bake at 400ºF for 30 to 40 minutes until perfectly soft and tender.
Yes! Place them directly on the coals (not in the flames) and cook for about 30 to 40 minutes until very soft (or a little longer - they are very forgiving).
