GREEK POTATOES 
6 med. potatoes, cubed
1/2 c. fresh lemon juice (about 2 1/2 lemons)
1/3 c. vegetable oil
1 tbsp. olive oil
2 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. black pepper
1 1/2 tsp. dried oregano
2 garlic cloves, pressed
3 c. hot water
Chopped fresh parsley

Toss together the potatoes, lemon juice, oils, spices and garlic in a deep flat pan about 8 x 12 inches. Add the water. Bake uncovered for about 45 to 60 minutes at 475 degrees. Stir every 20 minutes adding more water if necessary to prevent sticking.

Be very careful not to burn the potatoes during the last 20 minutes. During the final 20 minutes allow the water to evaporate until only the oil is left. Garnish with fresh parsley and serve. 100% cholesterol free.

These are the best greek potatoes that I have ever had. My family said they were better than our favorite Greek Diners.

This recipe was excellent! My wife is 1/2 Greek and lived in Greece for a number of years. Additionally we have frequented Greek Restaurants and diners in New York City and have had Greek Oven Potatoes many times. My wife told me that she thought she was back in Greece and that these potatoes are better than what is produced at the Greek restaurants in Manhattan!

I'd like to make note that the recipe is super easy to set up and cook. We did go with 1/3 cup of Extra Virgin Olive Oil instead of the Vegetable oil, but that's the only change.

These potatoes were excellent. I used salt reduced chicken stock instead of water to add a bit more flavour and they turned out amazing. I could make these everyday!
