"Wrapping your fish and veg in a neat foil package captures maximum flavour for minimum effort. We’ve used salmon, but any firm fish fillet will work," says Hot Potato founder Shannon Harley.

Ingredients (7)

  • 500g baby potatoes, halved
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • 4 salmon fillets
  • 2 tsp balsamic vinegar
  • 2 handfuls grape tomatoes, halved
  • 8 basil leaves, torn
  • For the grown-ups: a sprinkle of baby capers in brine

Method

  • 1.
    Preheat the grill to medium.
  • 2.
    In a large bowl, toss the potatoes with 1 tbs olive oil, 1/2 tsp oregano and a generous pinch of salt and pepper.
  • 3.
    Tear off 8 large pieces of foil (about 30cm), double them up, and add one-quarter of the potato mixture to each. Wrap the foil over the potatoes, pinching the foil to seal.
  • 4.
    Place the foil parcels on the grill and cook for 20-30 minutes, or until the potatoes are soft and can be pierced easily with a fork.
  • 5.
    Meanwhile, combine 2 tsp olive oil, 2 tsp balsamic vinegar, 1/2 tsp oregano and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a bowl. Add the salmon and turn to coat both sides of the fish.
  • 6.
    Carefully remove each foil packet from the grill, and when cool enough to handle, open and top the potatoes with the salmon. Add the tomatoes, capers and basil.
  • 7.
    Reseal the foil parcels, not too tight as heat needs to circulate, and return to the grill for about 10-15 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked.
  • 8.
    Serve as is, or with an additional glug of balsamic vinegar and more fresh basil.
