Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 1/2 pounds baby Yukon Gold or other thin-skinned yellow potatoes
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 medium red onions (quartered and sliced thinly)
4 medium garlic cloves (minced)
1 1/2 teaspoons dried oregano + another 1/2 teaspoon for topping
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 fresh red chili (an jalapeno would also work)
2 teaspoons granulated sugar
1 tablespoon white wine vinegar
1 14-ounce can diced tomatoes, drained
30 pitted kalamata olives
3 ounces crumbled feta cheese
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
Olive oil for drizzling
Plain yogurt and lemon wedges for topping/serving

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Fill a large pot about halfway with water, and add the potatoes. Set on the stove over high heat and bring to a boil. Boil for about 20 minutes or until tender. Drain potatoes and rinse with cool water. Set aside until cool enough to handle, then cut into thick slices.
  • Add the olive oil to a heavy pan set over medium heat. Cook the onions until soft, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic, cumin, chili, and oregano and cook, stirring, for another minute. Stir in the sugar, vinegar, and tomatoes. Add a couple pinches of salt and a bit of freshly ground black pepper. Taste and add additional salt if you'd like.
  • Add the potatoes to the baking dish and top with olives. Toss lightly. Pour the tomato mixture over the top. Crumble the feta over the tomatoes, drizzle with a little olive oil, and sprinkle with the remaining 1/2 teaspoon oregano.
  • Bake for 25 - 30 miinutes until heated through.
  • Serve hot, topping individual servings with dollops of yogurt and lemon juice as desired.
