Hedgehog Potatoes - the preamble


Heading to Julie's for a backyard BBQ tomorrow - so excited!!!
I've prepped a new dish: Hedgehog Potatoes

Take yellow potatoes (wax-type work better than russets for this dish)
Slice them 1/4" widthwise: not quite through - place on a large spoon to stop the knife strokes
Slip in slivered garlic between the slices
Mix a marinade of Harissa and Extra Virgin Olive Oil
Baste with loving goodness!
Roast in oven - 350ish for 30ish (validation on this after the BBQ)

Viola! Scrumptiousness!

Small garden, Big yield



1. Small garden, big yield!, 2. Broccoli Rabe

The backyard veggie plot is small. Quite. But it produces juuuuuuuuuust fiiiiiine!

Onion and leeks, in repose

Rembrandt-style. Word!
