Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1000 grams baby potatoes
- 60 milliliters lemon juice
- 240 milliliters low-fat vegetable broth
- 15 milliliters extra virgin olive oil
- 4 units garlic cloves
- 1 tablespoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F).
Wash the baby potatoes thoroughly. Cut them in half to ensure they cook evenly.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the lemon juice, low-fat vegetable broth, and olive oil.
Peel and finely mince the garlic cloves. Add them to the liquid mixture in the bowl.
Add the dried oregano, salt, and black pepper to the bowl, and mix well until all ingredients are incorporated.
Add the halved potatoes to the bowl and toss them until they are evenly coated with the lemon mixture.
Transfer the potatoes and all the liquid into a large baking dish, ensuring they are in a single layer for even roasting.
Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and roast for 45 minutes, stirring halfway through, until the potatoes are golden brown and tender.
Remove the potatoes from the oven and let them rest for a couple of minutes.
Finely chop the fresh parsley and sprinkle over the roasted potatoes before serving.
Serve warm as a side dish and enjoy!
