- In a big sheet of heavy duty aluminium foil (double it if you only have regular one), add the half of the leeks.

Add half of the remaining leeks on the potatoes followed by half of the garlic, cheese, parsley, cream and Italian spices. Add a small drizzle of olive oil then generously season with salt and pepper.
- Add the rest of the potatoes, always overlaying them a bit, then add the rest of the ingredients in the same order as the last step.
- Add a small drizzle of olive oil, season with salt and pepper one again then close the sides of the papillote. Add a layer of foil on top then close tightly.
- Place on the bbq and cook for 35-40 minutes or until potatoes are well cooked! Let cool down 5-10 minutes before serving. Garnish with fresh parsley.
