Planked, Sweet Mashed Potatoes

Ingredients:

• 1 large sweet potato
• 4 large potatoes
• 2 Tbsp butter
• 1 Tbsp melted butter
• 1/2 cup half-and-half cream
• 1/4 cup sour cream
• 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese – grated
• 2 cloves roasted garlic – minced
• chives for decoration
• 1 Tbsp chopped parsley
• paprika for a bit of finishing colour
• 1 cedar grilling plank, soak overnight

Peel and cube both kinds of potatoes and boil until tender (approx. 20 min). Add half the Parmesan , all the garlic, butter, cream, and sour cream. Mash it up. Arrange the potato mash onto the plank. Grill using indirect medium/high heat for about 25 min. Remove and top with the rest of the cheese and some greens (parsley, chives, etc.) so it looks pretty. Some salt and pepper to taste. Serve on the plank, blah, blah, blah, …

Pork Tenderloin with vaguely exotic spice rub

Ingredients:

• 3 medium sized pork tenderloins
• 3 Tbsp brown sugar
• 1 Tbsp kosher salt
• 1 Tbsp ground pepper
• 1 Tbsp chilli powder
• 1 Tbsp dried thyme
• 1 Tbsp fennel seeds
• 1 tsp paprika

Mash up the rub ingredients with a mortar and pestle. Work the rub into the tenderloins and let sit for an hour or two. Grill on a medium heat for approx. 20 min. Let rest before slicing – against the grain – and serve.

Blind Bananas

Ingredients:

• 4 bananas – not too ripe
• 4 Tbsp butter
• 1/2 tsp cinnamon
• 1/2 tsp allspice
• 1/4 tsp ground cloves
• 4 tsp brown sugar
• 2 tsp dark rum
• Juice of a lime
• Ice cream
• A few berries as a decoration

Melt butter in the saucepan, add spices, sugar, and rum. Heat on low, stir, and let thicken. Cut bananas lengthwise leaving the skin on. Brush half the thickened sauce on the bananas and place them, skin side up, on the barbecue for about two minutes. Flip them over and grill them, skin side down, for another two minutes. Remove from grill, slip the bananas out of their skins and serve with ice cream, some berries and the remaining sauce.

Note: that’s the original recipe. I used what I had on hand. Instead of cinnamon, allspice, and ground cloves I put 1/2 tsp of spice for mulched wine. Didn’t have the berries, too, but it was good, nevertheless. Also, 1 Tbsp of butter per 1 banana is little bit too much (or I should let it thicken little bit more than I did). Rum is never too much!
