There are numerous ways to cook potatoes. The Greeks do it the best! If you want crispy and flavorful potatoes, this recipe is for you.
This is one of my favorite (and easiest) potato recipes perfect as an appetizer, topping for a gyro, or the twist for a Valentine's Day dinner. I will have that next week in case you forget to get a reservation. Rather, part of a plan for a Valentine's Day dinner.
Ingredients:
1/2 - 1 lb potatoes
1 tbsp butter (room temp)
Olive Oil
3 cloves of garlic
1/2 red onion (diced)
1/4 cup of lemon juice
1/2 cup of chicken stock
(enough to fill it to the top)
Oregano
Salt
Pepper
Red Chili Pepper
Method:
Peel and par boil the potatoes in a boiling pot of water until they are somewhat soft
Remove them and slice each potato horizontally into slices (depending on the size a couple of times horizontally
Heat a sauce pan with olive oil, garlic, and chili pepper for a minute on medium- high heat
Once fragrant, add the onions and salt and pepper and sautée for a couple of minutes
Add the sliced potatoes to the pan and fry each side until about golden brown
Once you flip each side, set the pan to low heat, add the chicken stock until it is about covering half of the potatoes, and cover for 15 to 20 minutes
