These potatoes are grilled rather than oven-baked. The grilled fries are virtually no work at all. I devote more time to the dip: a summer ketchup made from tomatoes and apricots and the fresh, tangy mix of basil and rosemary; seasoned with curry, cinnamon and honey – even meat-eaters would let their steak go cold for some of this!
