Char-grilled leeks

Such an incredibly simple way to cook and enjoy leeks. Thanks, @Knivett for sharing your knowledge with me. It was delicious.
They can also be chargrilled in an open fire but I did these in a regular oven grill. These sweet juicy leeks paired incredibly well with @kanaaneko romesco sauce

Leeks are cooked whole and are kept as much intact as possible. Trim the top green parts of the leek and slightly split to get your fingers in and clean out any dirt. Hold under running water and clean these. Leave the root end in place. Place in a baking tray and place under a very hot Grill. Turn the leeks every so often under they are completely charred black all over the outer layer and soft. No need to season or use oil, the leeks natural juices do all the work.

Easy, Juicy Tandoori-Style Char Siu Easy, Juicy Tandoori-Style Char Siu
This recipe came from a TV show about Mexican pork. The kids love it, and the spiciness is tempered by using pork instead of chicken. I developed this method to bake it so the fat renders, leaving behind only juicy, tender meat.Baking in an oven is the key here. It comes out really juicy. If possible, bake directly on a grill set above a pan to catch the drips while steaming the meat to make it even juicier. You can also fry it over a regular grill. Don't forget to cover with aluminum foil to prevent burning! Recipe by Toiroiro cookpad.japan -

Jacket potato Jacket potato
A jacket potato,is a potato that has been baked for eating. When well cooked, a baked potato has a fluffy interior and a crisp skin. It may be served with fillings and condiments such as butter, cheese, sour cream, gravy or even ground meat. Potatoes can be baked in a conventional gas or electric oven, a convection oven, a microwave oven, on a barbecue grill, or on/in an open fire. Some restaurants use special ovens designed specifically to cook large numbers of potatoes, then keep them warm and ready for service. It is an English dish. Ankita Chakraborty -
