Grilled Sweet Potato Coins BBQ Recipe

Blanching is the secret here: It locks in flavour and colour for exceptionally flavourful sweet potatoes.

1 quart salted water
2 small sweet potatoes (about 1 pound total)
Ice water
1/4 cup vegetable oil
1 teaspoon salt

In a 2-quart saucepan bring salted water to a boil. Peel and slice sweet potatoes into 1/4- to 1/2-inch thick disks. Add disks to boiling water; blanch for 2 to 3 minutes. Remove sweet potatoes from water and plunge into a bowl of ice water to chill.

Remove from water, dry, and place in bowl or large plastic bag. Pour oil over sweet potatoes; toss to coat.

Place sweet potatoes in centre of cooking grate. Grill 4 to 6 minutes, turning once during cooking time. Remove sweet potatoes from grill; sprinkle with salt.

Makes 4 servings.
