GREEK LEMON POTATOES

Recipe video above. The idea behind this recipe is that the potatoes suck up the amazing lemon-garlic-oregano flavoured broth, then roasted until golden crispy edges. These won't go super crunchy because of the way they're cooked - but you won't miss the crunch because they have flavour unlike any other ordinary roasted potato! If crunch is what you're after, try these recipes: Duck Fat Potatoes, or Truly Crunchy Roast Potatoes.

Time 1h20m

Number Of Ingredients 8

1.2 kg / 2.5lb potatoes ((Aus: Desiree, US: Yukon Gold, UK: Maris Piper) (Note 1))
1 1/2 cups chicken stock/broth (, low sodium (Note 2))
1/2 cup olive oil
1/3 cup lemon juice
5 garlic cloves (, finely grated using microplane (Note 3))
1 tbsp dried oregano
2 tsp salt ((Note 4))
Lemon wedges, fresh oregano leaves

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 200°C/390°F (180°Cfan).
  • Cut potatoes: Peel potatoes and cut large ones into thick wedges - about 3cm / 1.2" thick - and medium ones into 3 (see photo in post).
  • Coat potatoes: Place potatoes in a roasting pan with all the other ingredients. Toss well.
  • Roast 45 minutes: Roast for 20 minutes. Turn potatoes, roast for a further 25 to 30 minutes until the liquid is mostly absorbed by potatoes/evaporated and you're left with mainly oil in the pan.
  • To crisp the potatoes (optional): Transfer potatoes to a separate tray. (Note 3) Tilt the original roasting pan and scoop off as much of the oil as you can (some juices is ok), then drizzle over the potatoes.
  • Roast 35 minutes: Transfer potatoes to oven and roast for 35 - 40 minutes, turning once or twice, until potatoes are golden and a bit crispy on the edges.
  • Heat pan juices: Return pan #1 with the garlic juices to the oven for the last 5 - 10 minutes or so to reduce down and make the garlic golden. (Optional, Note 4)
  • Plate up: Transfer potatoes to serving platter. Drizzle over the reduced garlic pan juices (or toss potatoes in the pan). Serve, garnished with lemon wedges and oregano if desired.

GREEK LEMON POTATOES



Greek Lemon Potatoes image

For the dreamiest roasted potatoes - with creamy insides and very crispy outsides - follow this classic Greek method of roasting peeled potatoes in equal parts olive oil, lemon juice and chicken stock. The potatoes soak up the flavorful liquid, allowing the insides to remain tender while the outsides crisp in the oven's high heat. You can follow the same method for russet potatoes, though the final result will be less moist.

Time 1h

1/2 cup chicken broth or water
1/2 cup olive oil
1/2 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice (from 3 to 4 large lemons)

3 pounds large Yukon Gold potatoes (about 6), peeled then halved lengthwise and crosswise
1 tablespoon dried oregano (optional)
Flaky salt and black pepper, for serving

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 450 degrees. On a rimmed sheet pan, combine the chicken broth, olive oil, lemon juice and kosher salt. Toss the potatoes in the liquid to coat, then arrange the potatoes in an even layer, cut-sides down. Sprinkle the oregano over the potatoes, if using.
  • Roast the potatoes, flipping halfway through, until fork-tender, dark brown and crispy on top, 55 to 60 minutes. (If the potatoes are cooked through but not as crispy as you'd like, run them under the broiler for a few minutes.) Sprinkle with flaky salt and black pepper as desired.

GREEK LEMON-ROASTED POTATOES



Greek Lemon-Roasted Potatoes image

Greek potatoes are roasted with lemon juice and dried Greek oregano; lemon is so central to Greek cooking that the term a la grecque (French for "in the Greek style") generally means "cooked with lemon."

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Healthy Recipes     Gluten-Free Recipes

Number Of Ingredients 6

4 large russet baking potatoes (8 medium), peeled and quartered
1/2 cup olive oil
1/2 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice (3 lemons)
1 tablespoon dried oregano, preferably Greek oregano, plus more for garnish
1 tablespoon salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 500 degrees. Place potatoes in a metal roasting pan large enough to fit potatoes in a single layer. Add 1 cup water, olive oil, lemon juice, dried oregano, salt, and pepper. Toss potatoes until well coated.
  • Bake, uncovered, until fork-tender and brown on the edges, about 50 minutes. Turn potatoes halfway through for even browning; add water if all the liquid has been absorbed, before they have fully browned. If desired, garnish with oregano; serve.

Tips:

  • Use the right potatoes: Choose firm, waxy potatoes like Yukon Gold or Red Bliss. These hold their shape better than starchy potatoes like Russets, which tend to fall apart when roasted.
  • Cut the potatoes evenly: This will ensure that they cook evenly. If the potatoes are different sizes, the smaller ones will overcook before the larger ones are done.
  • Season the potatoes generously: Don't be afraid to use plenty of salt, pepper, and herbs. This will help to bring out the flavor of the potatoes.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When roasting the potatoes, make sure there is enough space between them so that they can crisp up. If the potatoes are too crowded, they will steam instead of roast.
  • Roast the potatoes until they are golden brown and crispy: This will take about 30-40 minutes, depending on the size of the potatoes. Keep an eye on them and shake the pan occasionally so that they cook evenly.
  • Serve the potatoes immediately: Roasted potatoes are best served hot and crispy. They can be garnished with fresh herbs like parsley or thyme.
