Hay-Baked New Potatoes. Slow-cooked in a nest of hay in a Dutch oven over wood fire embers, the potatoes become imbued with a sweet earthiness and charred smokiness from the hay yielding a unique earthy and powerful flavour. I first tried these early last year with my mate Paul J (This Green Moon) who I co-run Fire & Dine with and we were both blown away with the massive flavour. So they went on the menu and our guests loved them served simply with crème fraîche, chives and crushed bacon.
Online booking is now available for Fire & Dine on 13 APRIL and 8 JUNE. The venue as usual is the ancient woodland at Swillington Farm, Leeds. Four courses cooked over wood fires plus appetisers plus matched wines and ales served with each course. Ten seats only. Hope to see you there.
