I seriously debated whether or not to add this recipe to my blog. Garlic Lemon Potatoes is so easy to make. But since so much of enjoying food is eating with your eyes, I decided this recipe needed a few photos to show off the yummy goodness.
To make them, simply quarter up some Yukon Gold potatoes, add a light dressing (see recipe below), and roast in the oven for about 45 minutes.
Add a bit of fresh parsley and even more lemon if desired. That’s it!
Two things I strongly recommend for this recipe: The first, use Yukon Gold potatoes, or other similar creamy-style potatoes. Don’t use Russet Potatoes…too starchy. The second, skip the ketchup. These potatoes are mean to be served as a side dish for meat or fish, and not as french fries. Something to try…enjoy it with Greek-style Lamb Burgers and a salad.
