  17. Top with spring onion and parsley.
  18. Serve dressing on the side.

Notes

  • For perfectly grilled potatoes, ensure your grill is hot before adding the foil packet. This helps achieve a crispy exterior.
  • To make this recipe ahead, prepare the dressing and grill/bake the potatoes a day in advance. Store separately and combine just before serving.
  • Feel free to adjust the vegetables based on seasonal availability. Other spring options include sugar snap peas, green beans, or favas.
