Crispy Greek Fries Recipe

Step 1

Slice each potato lengthwise into 1/2 inch slices, then cut each slice into 1/2 inch wide sticks. So basically, cut the potatoes into French fries.

Step 2

Transfer fries to a bowl of cold water and soak for at least 30 minutes (or overnight in the fridge). Then thoroughly dry fries on a clean kitchen towel. Dry the bowl as well and add fries back to the bowl.

Step 3

Preheat oven to 450 degrees. And line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 4

Add 1/3 cup olive oil, garlic powder, thyme and paprika along with a couple large pinches of salt and pepper to a measuring cup. Mix until well combined.

Step 5

Pour oil mixture over the fries in a large bowl. Toss until seasoning is well distributed and fries are evenly coated.

Step 6

Spread fries in a single layer on the baking sheet. Bake for 30 minutes.

Step 7

Then crank the heat to 500 and bake for 15 minutes. Flip fries and bake for another 5-10 minutes or until desired crispiness is reached.

Step 8

Drizzle baked fries with remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil and sprinkle with fresh chopped dill, parsley, and lemon zest. Toss to coat evenly.

Step 9

Transfer to a serving platter crumbled feta and serve with dill yogurt sauce.
