Grilled New Potatoes With Tarragon Butter Recipes

NEW POTATOES WITH GRILLED ONION BUTTER

Steps:

• Preheat a charcoal or gas grill to high.
• Put the potatoes in a 2-quart pot. Add enough water to cover the potatoes by 2 inches and enough salt to make the water taste like seawater. Add the garlic and bay leaves.
• Bring the potatoes to a boil and then cook at a gentle simmer until they test tender when poked with a thin fork, 15 to 20 minutes, though it depends on the size and age of the potatoes. Drain the contents of the pot into a sieve set over a heavy bowl, filling the bowl with the hot water just to warm it. Throw out the water, drop the potatoes in the bowl and cover the bowl tightly with plastic wrap to keep the potatoes warm.
• As the potatoes cook, toss the onions with a little canola oil and salt and pepper and grill over medium-high heat until charred and soft. On the same grill, heat a cast-iron pan. Add the butter and cook until it browns. Remove from the heat, add the rosemary and give the pan a shake; the butter will foam. When it stops sizzling, add the onions to the butter and cook over low heat until they are very tender and the butter has taken on a pronounced oniony flavor.
• Remove the spent rosemary sprigs. Pour the butter and onion mixture over the warm cooked potatoes and serve right away.

GRILLED NEW POTATOES WITH SMOKED PAPRIKA VINAIGRETTE AND PARMESAN

Steps:

• Put the potatoes in a pot and cover by 2 inches with cold water. Add 2 tablespoons of salt, bring to a boil and cook until a skewer inserted in the center of a potato meets no resistance, about 20 minutes. Drain well and cool slightly.
• Preheat a grill to high heat. Halve the potatoes and toss with the canola oil, smoked paprika and some salt and pepper. Grill the potatoes cut-side down until golden brown and crusty, 4 to 5 minutes.
• While the potatoes are grilling, whisk the vinegar, mustard, parsley and salt and pepper until combined. Slowly whisk in the olive oil. Taste; add a drop or two of honey if desired.
• Mound the cooked and still warm potatoes in a large shallow bowl. Drizzle with the vinaigrette and top with the Parmesan and parsley leaves.

GRILLED NEW POTATOES WITH SHIITAKE MUSHROOMS, SHALLOTS AND GOAT CHEESE

Steps:

• Add the potatoes to a large pot, cover by 2 inches with water, season with salt and bring to a boil. Boil until the potatoes are just fork tender but firm, about 10 minutes. Drain and set aside to cool.
• In the meantime, coat a large saute pan with canola oil and set over medium-high heat. Add the shiitakes, garlic paste and shallots. Season with salt and pepper and saute until the mushrooms are golden and tender, 7 to 10 minutes. Just before the mushrooms are ready, toss in the thyme and parsley. Remove the mixture from the heat and allow to cool.
• Heat a grill to high.
• Now, slice your cooled potatoes into 1/2-inch rounds. Drizzle them with a bit of canola oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Grill the potatoes until marked and cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes per side.
• Toss the cooled mushroom mixture with the goat cheese. Add some red wine vinegar, extra-virgin olive oil and salt and pepper. Top each piece of grilled potato slice with a spoonful of the mushroom mixture. Garnish with chervil.

GRILLED FINGERLING POTATOES WITH CREAMY TARRAGON VINAIGRETTE

Steps:

• Preheat a grill to medium heat.
• Combine the vinegar, a splash of water, the shallots, mustard, mayonnaise and tarragon in a blender and puree until smooth. With the motor still running, slowly pour in the oil and blend until the vinaigrette has emulsified. Adjust the seasoning with salt and black pepper, to taste.
• Brush the potatoes with some canola oil and season them with salt and black pepper, to taste. Grill them, cut side down, until they are lightly golden, then turn them over and continue grilling until they are just cooked through. Transfer them to a platter and immediately drizzle with the vinaigrette. Garnish with a few tarragon leaves and serve.

GRILLED NEW POTATOES WITH LEMON, GARLIC, AND ROSEMARY

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
• Wash and cut the potatoes into quarter wedges. Juice lemons and with a sharp knife peel away the white pith. Cut rind into 1/4-inch strips.
• Combine the lemon rind, half the juice, roasted garlic, rosemary, and oil in a roasting pan. Add the potatoes, mix well, and marinate overnight.
• Preheat a grill.
• Drain the potatoes in a colander reserving the lemon and garlic. Grill the potatoes on the 2 cut sides, just to mark slightly.
• Using the same roasting pan, place the potatoes, lemon rinds, and garlic back in the pan and roast for 12 to 15 minutes, shaking and tossing the pan every 5 minutes.
• Season with salt and pepper, and drizzle remaining lemon juice if desired.
