Servings 4 people

Equipment

Sharp knife

Cutting board

Rubber spatula

Oven Tray

Boiling Pot

Baking Sheet

Ingredients

• 3 pounds potatoes (1.5kg)
• 1 tsp oregano
• 3 cloves garlic
• 2 lemons
• salt
• black pepper
• olive oil
• white wine vinegar

Instructions

• We start by washing and peeling the potatoes
• Next we cut the potatoes into large wedges
• In a boiling pot at medium heat we add 1 teaspoon of salt and 1 tablespoon of vinegar
• Next we add in the potatoes and boil them for 10 minutes
• While the potatoes are cooking, in a large bowl we add the juice of the lemons, 5 ounces (or 150ml) of olive oil, 1 teaspoon of salt, black pepper, the oregano, the crushed garlic and mix everything together for 30 seconds
• After the potatoes have boiled for 10 minutes, drain the water and add the potatoes into the large bowl. Mix the potatoes and the sauce until they are well covered. Let them rest like this for 1-2 minutes so that they absorb the sauce
• Now add them on an oven tray, covered with a baking sheet (or not), making sure to have space between the potatoes so that they roast better
• Sprinkle half of the remaining sauce over the potatoes and let them cook in the oven for 30 minutes at 400 degrees Fahrenheit (or 200 degrees Celsius)
• After that, cover them with the rest of the sauce and toss them around. Put them again in the oven for another 30 minutes, or until they get crispy and golden brown. Take them out and serve
