CAMPFIRE POTATOES

Just because you're in the middle of the woods doesn't mean that your food needs to lack flavor. These potatoes are grilled to tender perfection with herbs and garlic in an aluminum foil pouch.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Healthy Recipes     Gluten-Free Recipes

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 pounds small potatoes, such as fingerlings or Red Bliss, scrubbed
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 teaspoon coarse salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
4 sprigs fresh rosemary
6 cloves garlic

Steps:

  • Preheat a grill until medium hot. If necessary, cut potatoes to uniform size to ensure even cooking. In a large bowl, combine potatoes, olive oil, salt, pepper, rosemary, and garlic. Toss to combine.
  • Place potatoes on one half of a 12-by-24-inch piece of heavy-duty aluminum foil. Fold foil over potatoes, and seal, forming a package.
  • Place package on the grill. Grill potatoes until fork-tender, 35 to 45 minutes. Serve.

Tips:

  • Choose the right potatoes: Select firm, smooth potatoes with no blemishes or cuts. Russet potatoes are a popular choice for campfire cooking, as they hold their shape well and have a fluffy texture when cooked.
  • Wash the potatoes thoroughly: Scrub the potatoes under running water to remove any dirt or debris. This will help prevent grit from getting into your cooked potatoes.
  • Cut the potatoes evenly: Cut the potatoes into uniform pieces so that they cook evenly. If you are making potato wedges, cut the potatoes into quarters or sixths. For diced potatoes, cut them into 1-inch cubes.
  • Season the potatoes well: Before cooking, toss the potatoes with olive oil, salt, and pepper. You can also add other seasonings, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or paprika.
  • Wrap the potatoes tightly in foil: To prevent the potatoes from drying out, wrap them tightly in foil before cooking. You can also add a little bit of water or broth to the foil packet to help keep the potatoes moist.
  • Cook the potatoes over medium heat: Cook the potatoes over medium heat for 30-45 minutes, or until they are tender when pierced with a fork. If you are cooking the potatoes in a foil packet, you can place them directly on the hot coals.
  • Unwrap the potatoes carefully: Once the potatoes are cooked, carefully unwrap the foil packet. Be careful not to burn yourself on the steam.

Conclusion:

Campfire potatoes are a delicious and easy side dish that can be enjoyed by campers of all ages. With a little planning and preparation, you can easily make campfire potatoes that are perfectly cooked and full of flavor. So next time you're camping, be sure to give this recipe a try!
