¼ cup(s) (50 mL)packed brown sugar
1garlic clove, minced
1 tbsp (15 mL)minced fresh gingerroot

Garlic Smashed Potatoes (recipe follows)

  • Garlic Smashed Potatoes: Boil scrubbed 3-inch (7.5 cm) new potatoes until just tender. Drain and cool slightly. Flatten each potato slightly with your hand, keeping potatoes intact. Brush generously with your favourite salad dressing and season with salt and pepper. Grill about 3 minutes per side, until crispy and browned.
