Taken from "The Foods of The Greek Islands" written by Aglaia Kremezi. This is most always served with lamb or roasted chicken. Use small potatoes for this if you can, quarter or half them and leave the peel on, they absorb more flavor when they are cut and cooked in the juices. This lemon potato dish has extreme flavor, and the recipe can be doubled, try this dish with your next roasted chicken dinner, you will have rave reviews!

Tips:

  • Choose the right potatoes: For this recipe, it's best to use small or medium-sized potatoes that are firm and have a thin skin, such as Yukon Gold or red potatoes.
  • Cut the potatoes evenly: This will help them cook evenly. If the potatoes are too large, cut them into quarters or eighths.
  • Soak the potatoes in water: This will help remove excess starch and prevent the potatoes from sticking together.
  • Use a good quality olive oil: Extra virgin olive oil is the best choice for this recipe, as it has a rich flavor and aroma.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When cooking the potatoes, make sure to leave enough space between them so that they can brown evenly.
  • Cook the potatoes until they are golden brown: This will ensure that they are cooked through and have a crispy exterior.
  • Season the potatoes generously: Salt, pepper, garlic powder, and oregano are all essential seasonings for this recipe. You can also add other herbs or spices to your taste.
  • Serve the potatoes immediately: These potatoes are best served hot, right out of the pan. They can be served as a side dish or as a main course with a salad.

Conclusion:

Lemon potatoes with garlic and oregano are a simple but flavorful dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. They are perfect for a weeknight meal or a special occasion. With just a few ingredients and a little time, you can create a delicious and satisfying dish that will impress your family and friends.
