Preheat the oven to 425Β°F (220Β°C).
Peel and cut the russet potatoes into thin fries, approximately 1/4 inch thick.
Place the potato fries in a large bowl and add olive oil, 1 teaspoon of salt, pepper, oregano, and garlic powder. Toss to coat the fries evenly.
Spread the fries in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Ensure they are not overlapping for even cooking.
Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the fries are crispy and golden brown.
While the fries are baking, prepare the vegan tzatziki sauce. Grate the cucumber and squeeze out excess moisture using a clean kitchen towel or paper towel.
In a mixing bowl, combine the vegan yogurt, grated cucumber, lemon juice, minced garlic clove, remaining 1 teaspoon of salt, and chopped dill. Mix well and refrigerate until ready to use.
Once the fries are baked, remove from the oven and sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley.
Serve the crispy vegan Greek fries hot, accompanied by the vegan tzatziki sauce for dipping.
