Lemon and oregano make these fried potatoes special enough for a company meal. I love Greek food and the freshness that lemon brings.

Categories     Potatoes

Number Of Ingredients 4

6 large baking potates, washed, not peeled and cut up as for large french fries
juice of 1 lemon (or more to taste)
kosher salt, freshly ground black pepper and oregano to taste
1/2 c olive oil, extra virgin

Steps:

  • 1. Combine the potatoes, lemon juice, salt, pepper and oregano in a bowl, mix well and allow the potatoes to marinate for an hour or so.
  • 2. Heat the olive oil in a wok or deep skillet over high heat until it begins to smoke.
  • 3. Add the marinated potatoes and fry them, tossing gently but often, until they begin to brown.
  • 4. Adjust the seasonings, adding additional salt, pepper, lemon juice and oregano, as desired.
  • 5. Cook until nicely browned and just tender. Do not let the potatoes get so soft that they fall apart.

These potatoes were a bit bland. I think I'll try adding some more herbs and spices next time.

I'm not a huge fan of potatoes, but these were actually really good. I'll definitely be making them again.

These potatoes were a bit too oily for my taste. I think I'll try baking them next time.

I've made this recipe several times and it's always a success. The potatoes are crispy and flavorful. I love serving them with a dollop of sour cream.

These potatoes are so easy to make and they're always a crowd-pleaser. I like to add a little bit of garlic powder and paprika to the seasoning.

I followed the recipe exactly and the potatoes turned out perfect. I served them with grilled chicken and a side of tzatziki sauce.

These fried Greek potatoes were a hit at my dinner party! They were crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. The oregano and lemon added a delicious flavor.
