Greek Oven Roast Potatoes Recipes

GREEK LEMON POTATOES

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.

OVEN-ROASTED GREEK POTATOES

Steps:

• In a small bowl, mix the lemon pepper, marjoram, basil, thyme, and rosemary. In a separate bowl, mix the wine, water, olive oil, dressing, garlic, lemon juice, lemon zest, and 1/2 the seasoning mixture. Pour into a medium glass baking dish. Place potatoes in the dish, coat with the mixture, and sprinkle with remaining seasonings. Cover, and refrigerate 8 hours, or overnight.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Bake potatoes 1 hour and 15 minutes in the preheated oven, basting once half way through the bake time.

CRISPIEST GREEK LEMON POTATOES RECIPE (PATATES LEMONATES)

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 200C / 400F
• To prepare these extra crispy Greek lemon potatoes, cut the potatoes into wedges and place them on a large metal roasting pan. Into a bowl add the remaining ingredients (including the semolina and the 150ml of water) and blend; pour the semolina-lemon mixture over the potatoes and season well with salt and pepper.
• Bake for 40 minutes, until a nice golden crust has formed on the potatoes; turn them out of the oven, toss them a little bit to bring them upside down, sprinkle with a pinch of oregano and put back into the oven for another 30-40 minutes. If all of the liquid has been absorbed and the pan appears to be getting dry, add 1/4-1/2 of a cup hot water into the pan or some extra lemon mixture, before they have fully browned
• The secret for these extra crispy Greek lemon potatoes is to sprinkle the potatoes with some semolina, as it helps to form a nice golden crust around them. Don't be afraid of over baking them- they will become even more delicious!

GREEK LEMON-ROASTED POTATOES

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.

GREEK POTATOES (OVEN-ROASTED AND DELICIOUS!)

Steps:

• 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.
• Note: I often melt a bouillon cube in the water; if you do, make sure to cut back some on the salt.

OVEN ROASTED GREEK POTATOES

Steps:

• 1. Peel and cut potatoes into wedges. Dice onion. Chop garlic.
• 2. Zest the lemons and then juice. Set zest and juice aside. Cut up the lemon shell into a small dice.
• 3. Combine the potatoes, lemon juice, lemon zest, and cut up lemon, garlic, salt, pepper, Greek seasoning and oregano in a zip lock bag, mix well and allow the potatoes to marinate for an hour or so. (I let mine marinate for about 4 hours.)
• 4. Preheat oven to 425-degrees. Place a sheet of parchment paper on a baking sheet with a rim. Pour potatoes mixture on sheet and spread so that it is all one level.
• 5. Roast for 30 minutes, stir potatoes so the bottom side will brown.
• 6. I don't know whether I liked the juice from the potatoes or the juice from the green beans and tomatoes better for dipping my potatoes in. You'll just have to try this menu and decide for yourself.

ROASTED POTATOES WITH GARLIC, LEMON, AND OREGANO

• Bake the potatoes for 15 minutes. Add the stock, toss and bake for 10 minutes more. Add the lemon juice, toss and bake for 10 to 15 minutes more, or until the potatoes are cooked through. If you like, preheat the broiler and broil the potatoes for 2 to 3 minutes, or until golden brown.
• Sprinkle with the fresh oregano and serve at once.
• Variation:
• Dissolve 1 tablespoon tomato paste in the stock, and reduce the amount of lemon juice to taste. Substitute Aleppo pepper or crushed red pepper flakes for the black pepper.

• Take the pan out of the oven and arrange the potatoes, garlic and other bay around the chicken, drizzling with extra olive oil and seasoning with salt, pepper and more dried oregano. Squeeze the other lemon half over the potatoes, place in the pan, and add a bit more stock to the pan if it is dry. Cover with the foil and roast for another 40 minutes.
• Check the roast, turning the potatoes over. Add more stock if the pan is dry, cover and continue cooking for another 20-30 minutes or until the potatoes are fork tender and the chicken juices run clear.
