Ingredients

Servings
  • 1100 grams / 2.4 pound potato medium-sized
  • 6 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 + ⅔ teaspoon oregano dried
  • 4 tablespoons lemon juice fresh
  • 1 teaspoon honey
  • ¼ teaspoon mustard powder
  • ¼ teaspoon garlic powder

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 180°C / 356°F.
  2. Peel the potatoes and cut them into wedges. About 4 cm (1.5-inch) thick.
  3. Add them to a 28 x 18 cm (11 x 7-inch) baking dish or baking pan.
  4. Drizzle the olive oil on top. Sprinkle the potatoes with the oregano and season them with salt and pepper.
  5. In a small bowl or cup add the mustard powder, garlic powder, honey, and lemon juice. Mix very well and pour over the potatoes.
  6. Rub the mixture all over the potatoes very well. Then pour 1 cup of water (250 ml) into the pan from the side (so you don't rinse the potatoes).
  7. Cover the pan with aluminum foil. Bake for about 1 hour and 15 minutes. Prick a potato with a knife. It should feel very soft and mellow.
  8. Remove the aluminum foil and raise the oven's temperature to 200°C / 392°F.
  9. Bake for another 15-20 minutes until the potatoes get deep golden on the edges. They needn't get crispy. But if you prefer them crisp then leave them to roast a bit longer.
  10. Remove the potatoes from the oven, cover the pan again with the foil and let them stand for 30 minutes before serving.
  11. You can serve them with a feta dip like these: Htipiti (red Pepper Feta Dip), or Whipped Feta Dip (Tirokafteri).
