Boil potatoes: In a
large saucepan, cover potatoes with salted cold water by
1-inch and simmer, covered, until just tender, about
15-30 minutes, depending on size of potatoes. In a
colander, drain potatoes and rinse under cold water to
cool. With a sharp knife peel potatoes and cut crosswise
into ½-inch-thick slices. |

While potatoes are
boiling, prepare grill. In a small bowl whisk together
oil, salt and cumin and brush some onto both sides of
potato slices, reserving remaining cumin oil. |

Grill slices on an
oiled rack set 5 to 6 inches over glowing coals until
golden brown, about 1 minute on each side, and transfer
with tongs to a platter. Thinly slice scallion
diagonally and sprinkle over potatoes. Whisk lime juice
into remaining cumin oil with salt and pepper to taste
and drizzle over potatoes. Serve potato salad with lime
wedges and sprinkled with coriander. |
