Equipment
Method
- Start by peeling and cutting the potatoes into wedges.
- Rinse the cut potatoes under cold water to remove excess starch, then soak them in cold water for about 30 minutes.
- In a large pot or deep fryer, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F.
- Once soaked, drain the potatoes and pat them dry with paper towels.
- Carefully add the potatoes to the hot oil in batches, and fry for about 5-7 minutes or until they turn golden brown, flipping them halfway through.
- Once cooked, remove the potatoes with a slotted spoon and place them on paper towels to drain excess oil.
- While still hot, sprinkle them with salt, pepper, and dried oregano.
- Drizzle the lemon juice over the hot potatoes immediately after seasoning.
- Serve the Fried Greek Potatoes warm.
Notes
These potatoes are best enjoyed fresh for maximum crispiness.
