How to cook with a photo step by step

To bake potatoes on a fire, take a piece (250-300 g) of fat or undercut. It can be fresh fat or lightly salted, or smoked. Cut the fat into small plates.




In a clean container, combine finely chopped spicy herbs, softened butter and salt. In my case, I used dill, cilantro, stalks of young garlic. With a fork, thoroughly mash the mixture in a container, add hot pepper to taste.




Wash the potatoes with a sponge, and then make cross-shaped indentations on each tuber with a knife. Try to cut the potatoes as little as possible, but as deeply as possible. Because of this, the oil with herbs and the rendered fat were well soaked inside.
It is desirable that the sizes of the potatoes are the same, so the baking time for all will be the same.






Put a fragrant mixture on each potato and add a piece of lard on top.




Wrap the stuffed potatoes in several layers of foil. Move the gray coals without an open fire along the edges of the brazier and place the rolls of potatoes there. Cover the top of the potatoes with charcoal and mince for 15 minutes.




On top of the potatoes, you can bake fish or meat at this time, if the heat is enough for this. Remove one potato and pierce with a fork to determine how soft it is. Take out the finished potatoes in a container, do not unfold until serving.






As a sauce, you can pour sour cream or mayonnaise over baked potatoes in foil on a fire.
