Yummy Sunday BBQ


We love to BBQ at our house and often do it in the middle of the week because the weather is so nice. Our new favorite potato salad is a recipe from the June/July issue of Domino. My husband does most of the cooking and loves it when I find really good recipes for him :)

My husband changed the recipe slightly so here's his version:

Dave's Domino Potato Salad

2 lbs.small red potatoes
Plugra european Butter to taste
8-10 garlic cloves peeled ( whole )
1 tbsp. kosher salt
1 tsp. Dijon mustard
1/4 tsp. coarse black pepper
1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil
20 cornichons cut in half lengthwise
10 fresh tarragon leaves torn

Wrap red potatoes in foil with a few pats of the european butter, the garlic cloves and salt and pepper to taste. Close the foil and place on the BBQ for about 30 min. until the potatoes are tender.
Let the potatoes cool and cut into quarters. In a large bowl, combine the mustard, vinegar, pepper and a 1/4 teaspoon salt. Stir until uniform. Add the olive oil and stir again. Add the cooked potatoes ( with the cooked garlic ), cornichons and tarragon. Toss and coat.
ENJOY!!!
