I really enjoyed this. After reading the prior review, I decided to make a slight change in order to avoid any problems. I used 5 large Idaho potatoes, and boiled them as directed. However, I sliced them in quarters, so that they would n ot disintegrate. I cut the seasoning in half, and then grilled as instructed. They were fabulous! I have plenty of leftovers, and used them in my Recipe #321777 the next morning. Thanks, Kate, for posting this. Made for PAC Fall 2008.

This is an interesting recipe, but I'd make some changes before trying it again. It is hard to keep the potatoes from crumbling so I decided to broil them rather than grilling. Also, the spices were overpowering, I'd cut them in half. Made for My Three Chefs game.
