GREEK STYLE POTATOES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• In a small bowl, mix olive oil, water, garlic, lemon juice, thyme, rosemary, bouillon cubes and pepper.
• Arrange potatoes evenly in the bottom of a medium baking dish. Pour the olive oil mixture over the potatoes. Cover, and bake 1 1/2 to 2 hours in the preheated oven, turning occasionally, until tender but firm.

GREEK POTATOES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Combine the oil, basil, oregano, garlic powder, and salt in a 13x9-inch roasting pan. Place in the oven for 5 minutes.
• Add the cubed potatoes, tossing to coat with the herb/oil mixture. Bake for 40 minutes, turning occasionally, until the potatoes are tender inside and crisp outside. Drizzle with the lemon juice, grate a bit of lemon peel over the potatoes, and serve immediately.

GREEN MASHED POTATOES

Steps:

• Put potatoes in a large, deep pot and cover them with cold water. Add a large pinch of salt and bring to a boil. Cook until soft but not falling apart, 15 to 30 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain; meanwhile, add greens to water and cook for about 1 minute. Rinse under cold water. Drain well, then chop.
• Heat oven to 400 degrees. Rice potatoes, run them through a food mill, or mash them with a fork or potato masher, adding enough olive oil to moisten them well. Mash in the greens, adding more olive oil as needed. Sprinkle with salt and lots of pepper.
• Put mixture in an ovenproof dish and top with bread crumbs. Drizzle with more olive oil, sprinkle with salt and pepper, and bake until bread crumbs are golden brown, about 15 minutes. Serve hot or warm.

SLOW COOKER GREEN BEANS, HAM AND POTATOES

Steps:

• Halve beans if they are large, place in a slow cooker with water to barely cover, and add onion and ham hocks. Cover, and cook on High until simmering. Reduce heat to Low, and cook for 2 to 3 hours, or until beans are crisp but not done.
• Add potatoes, and cook for another 45 minutes. While potatoes are cooking, remove ham hocks from slow cooker, and remove meat from bones. Chop or shred meat, and return to slow cooker. Season with garlic powder, onion powder, seasoning salt, bouillon, and pepper. Cook until potatoes are done, then adjust seasoning to taste.
• To serve, use a slotted spoon to put beans, potatoes, and ham into a serving dish with a little broth.

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.
