grilled new potatoes with lemon-garlic aioli
(1 RATING)
I found this recipe in a special insert to my local paper (years ago), but only just recently tried it. I thought there wasn't anything you could do new to a potato, but I was so wrong! Friends and family also recommended the aioli mix over fish. . .

Ingredients

- 1/4 cup mayonnaise
- 6 cloves garlic, coarsely chopped
- 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice

How To Make grilled new potatoes with lemon-garlic aioli
-
Step 1In a large pot of salted water, boil potatoes until just thoroughly cooked, but not completely soft, 10 - 15 minutes depending on size. Test by piercing a potato with a thin skewer; when the skewer meats some resistance but can slide all the way through, the potatoes are ready. Drain potatoes immediately and set aside until cool enough to handle.
-
Step 2Combine mayonnaise, garlic, lemon juice, lemon rind, 1/4 tsp salt and 1/4 tsp pepper in a blender; blend until smooth.
-
Step 3Heat grill to high.
-
Step 4Cut potatoes in half, brush the cut sides with oil, and season with remaining 1/4 tsp salt and 1/4 tsp pepper. Grill potatoes cut side down until golden brown and just thoroughly cooked, 2 - 3 minutes.
-
Step 5Place potatoes on a platter, drizzle with the aioli and sprinkle with chives.
