Greek Potatoes
Ingredients
-
8 large
potatoes, peeled, cut into large wedges
( about 6-7 wedges per potato)
-
4
garlic cloves, minced
( more garlic is a good thing, less garlic is a no-no for this recipe)
-
1/2 cup
olive oil
-
1 cup
water
-
1 tablespoon
dried oregano
( get the Mediterranean, it's the best!)
-
1
lemon, juiced
-
sea salt
-
fresh coarse ground black pepper
Directions
- Preheat oven to 420°F A reviewer has suggested spraying the baking pan with Pam - that sounds like a great idea!
- Put all the ingredients into a baking pan large enough to hold them.
- Season generously with sea salt and black pepper.
- Make sure your hands are very clean and put them in the pan and give everything a toss to distribute.
- The garlic will drop into the water/oil solution but its flavour will permeate the potatoes, and this way, it won't burn.
- Bake for 40 minutes.
- When a nice
golden-brown crust has formed on the potatoes, give them a stir to bring
the white underside up, season lightly with a bit more sea salt and
pepper and just a light sprinkling of oregano.
- Add 1/2 cup more water if pan appears to be getting dry, and pop back into oven to brown other side of potatoes.
- This will take about another 40 minutes.
- Do not be afraid of overcooking the potatoes- they will be delicious.
Delicious potato recipe. Only used 1/2 cup of water and it was enough.
