Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Wash the kipfler and sweet potatoes thoroughly.
- Cut the kipfler potatoes into halves or quarters, depending on size.
- Cut the sweet potatoes into similarly sized pieces to ensure even cooking.
2. Preheat the Barbecue:
- Light the barbecue and preheat to a medium-high heat.
- Alternatively, you can use a grill pan on the stove over medium-high heat.
- Lightly oil the barbecue grill grates or your grill pan.
- Place the potato pieces on the grill.
- Cook the potatoes for about 20-30 minutes, turning occasionally, until they are cooked through and have nice grill marks. The exact time will depend on the size of your potato pieces and the heat of your grill.
- Once cooked, remove the potatoes from the grill and set them aside.
- In a food processor or blender, combine the fresh parsley, spearmint, dill, dried oregano, lemon zest, lemon juice, garlic cloves, mustard, and capers.
- Pulse until the herbs are finely chopped and the ingredients are well combined.
- With the processor running, slowly stream in the olive oil until the sauce is well emulsified and has a smooth consistency.
- Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.
- Arrange the barbecued kipfler and sweet potato pieces on a serving platter.
- Drizzle generously with the freshly prepared salsa verde.
- Optionally, garnish with additional fresh herbs or a sprinkle of lemon zest for added freshness and color.
- Serve immediately while the potatoes are still warm.
- This dish makes a wonderful side for grilled meats or fish, or it can be enjoyed on its own as a vegetarian main.
Tips:
- Choose fresh and firm vegetables for the best flavor and texture.
- Use a mandolin or a sharp knife to cut the potatoes evenly, ensuring even cooking.
- For extra smokiness, add some wood chips to your barbecue.
- Make the salsa verde ahead of time to allow the flavors to meld together more thoroughly.
- Toss the grilled potatoes in the salsa verde immediately after removing them from the grill while they are still hot, allowing them to soak up the flavors.
Barbecued kipfler and sweet potatoes with salsa verde is a versatile and delicious dish that is sure to impress. The combination of smoky, tender potatoes with the bright and herbaceous salsa verde makes for a winning combination that is both simple to prepare and delightful to eat.
