Jamie Oliver Garlic Slice 'n' Press
The Jamie Oliver Garlic Slice 'n Press is an all-in-one garlic prep tool that crushes or slices garlic depending on your recipe. The innovative press design removes garlic skin while crushing the clove to save time and keep hands clean. Or feed a peeled clove through the slicer chamber for perfectly thin garlic slices. The Slice 'n Press is cast from zinc, making it extremely durable but also lightweight.
Designed by celebrity-chef Jamie Oliver and DKB Household.
"Everyone loves a baked potato and this is one of the tastiest ways to make them. Slice, fill, then fit them back together."
SERVES 4
INGREDIENTS
2 cloves garlic, peeled and crushed
4 tablespoons butter, softened
Freshly ground black pepper
Sea salt
4 baking potatoes
4 anchovies, or 4 rashers (slices) of higher-welfare bacon if you're not an anchovy fan
1 handful fresh thyme sprigs
METHOD
Press garlic in Slice ‘n Press and add to softened butter. Pound in a mortar and pestle until smooth. Season the garlic butter well with lots of pepper but just a little salt as the anchovy or bacon will act as a seasoning too.
Cut each potato into 8 slices. Coat the slices of each potato with the butter mix then reassemble each potato on a piece of double-thick foil. Cut the anchovies or bacon into strips and put between the slices. Do the same with the thyme sprigs and carefully wrap up the potatoes.
Lay the wrapped spuds on the cooler coals at the sides of the barbie for 1 to 1.5 hours, depending on their size, turning every now and then, until tender. If you've got a gas barbie, put the potatoes right at the back over a low heat and give them plenty of time to cook. You might even want to give them half an hour's headstart in the oven first.
