Patates Tiganites (Greek Olive Oil Fries)

The Greek french fry. Serve them as is or drench them in Greek mountain oregano and squeeze a whole lot of lemon over them as I do. Either way you win.

INGREDIENTS:

• 4 small yellow potatoes, peeled and cut into long thick pieces

• 1 cup vegetable oil (or more)

• Salt

• Oregano

METHOD:

1. Salt potatoes generously and mix well. 

   1. In a pan (ideally one where you can lay each potato in one layer), add oil about 1-inch high. 

   2. Once oil is sizzling, add potatoes. Fry for 8-10 minutes (turning half-way) until golden brown. 

   3. Plate and season with salt and oregano.
