Foil-wrapped baby potatoes to go with a braai

These tender miniature potatoes with a charred braai flavour make a deliciously simple side dish.

You will need:

• 750g miniature potatoes.

• Two tablespoons olive oil.

What to do:

If your braai hasn’t already been heated, light and heat until the ashes turn grey. Put the potatoes in a large saucepan of cold water and bring to the boil. Once boiling, cook for five minutes until slightly tender.

Drain and leave to steam-dry for two minutes. Transfer to a large sheet of foil, coat in the olive oil and season well. Make sure the potatoes are sitting flat against the foil so each one gets charred when grilled. Wrap in the foil like a parcel, and wrap again to ensure the potatoes are completely covered. Cook on the braai for 10 minutes.

Check they are cooked by inserting a skewer into one of the potatoes. Carefully remove from the foil and serve in a dish.
