Our this week’s 159 #Foodiemonday bloghop theme is #GrilledRecipes.
I am not in a mood or situation to make something fancy because maintenance work is on full swing in our house. But I don’t want to skip. And humble potato comes to rescue. So here is a simple easy and delicious grilled potato recipe for you. I make it so often. Enjoy it as a snack or a side dish.
I have used two different marination for the potatoes. One is with Italian flavour and other is with tandoori masala. Made one in grill pan and one in halogen oven.

Recipe

Potato – 2 large

Olive oil – 4 tablespoon

Salt – 1/2 teaspoon +1 teaspoon

Garlic powder – 1 teaspoon

Oregano – 1 teaspoon

Chilli flakes – 1/2 teaspoon or to taste

With tandoori masala

Potatoes – 2 large

Salt – 1/4 teaspoon +1 teaspoon

Thick yogurt – 3 tablespoon

Tandoori masala – 1 tablespoon

Oil for greasing the pan

Method 1

1. Wash and peel the potatoes. You can also make it with skin.

2. Make thick slices.

3. Heat sufficient water in a pan. Add 1 teaspoon oil.

4. When the water starts to rolling boil slide the potato slices.

5. Boil for 5 – 6 minutes.

6. Drain the water.

7. Marinate with olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon salt, garlic powder, oregano and chilli flakes.
Marinate for 30 minutes.

8. Now heat a grill pan and grease it with little oil.

9. Place the potato slices on it.

10. When it becomes brown flip and fry the other side too.

Serve hot.

Method 2

1. Heat water in a pan. Add 1 teaspoon salt. When it starts to rolling boil slide the potato slices.

2. Drain the water and marinate with 1/4 teaspoon salt, thick yogurt and tandoori masala.
Marinate for 30 minutes.

3. Arrange the potato slices on a baking tray.

4. Grill on 200° for 6 minutes. If its not perfectly brown grill for 1 – 2 minutes more. Every oven takes different time so check after 6 minutes.

5. Flip the potato slices and grill the other side for 5 – 6 minutes again.

6. Take out your grilled potatoes on a serving plate.
Serve hot as a snack with tea or coffee or serve as a side dish.
Enjoy….

Notes

1. Tandoori masala has enough oil so don’t need to add extra oil.

2. If you don’t have halogen oven then you can grill it in microwave or OTG.

3. You can use black pepper powder instead of chili flakes or use both if you want more spicy.
