Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 750 g Baby potatoes (or regular potatoes, diced into 1-inch pieces)
- 4 tbsp Olive oil
- 3 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
- 2 tsp Dried oregano
- 1 tsp Smoked paprika
- 1 tsp Salt
- 0.5 tsp Ground black pepper
- 150 g Feta cheese, crumbled
- 2 tbsp Fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 tsp Lemon zest
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F) and line a large baking tray with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
Wash and dry the potatoes thoroughly. If using baby potatoes, halve them; if using regular potatoes, cut them into 1-inch pieces.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, minced garlic, dried oregano, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper.
Add the potato pieces to the bowl and toss them well to coat evenly with the seasoning mixture.
Spread the seasoned potatoes in a single layer on the prepared baking tray. Ensure they are spaced out for proper roasting and crispiness.
Place the baking tray in the preheated oven and roast the potatoes for 35-40 minutes, flipping them halfway through for even browning, until golden and crispy.
Once the potatoes are roasted to perfection, transfer them to a serving plate or bowl.
Sprinkle the crumbled feta cheese generously over the hot potatoes. The heat from the potatoes will slightly soften the feta, making it creamy.
Garnish with fresh parsley and a sprinkle of lemon zest for a fresh, tangy finish.
Serve immediately as a side dish or snack and enjoy!
