Note
The provided ingredient list includes carrots and coconut milk, which are not standard for a dry potato rub or the grilling method described in the directions. The directions assume a standard dry rub application on potatoes. If you intend to make a curry-based dish using the listed ingredients, the cooking method would require simmering the vegetables in the coconut milk with spices, rather than grilling.
For best results, use a grill basket to prevent small potato cubes from falling through the grates. Ensure the oil coating is sufficient to prevent sticking and to help the rub adhere.
Store any leftover dry rub in an airtight container in a cool, dark place for up to 6 months.
