Steps:

  • As potatoes brown, toss them and keep turning them every few minutes until they are crusty and crispy-edged and a rich reddish-brown color, 10 to 12 minutes. If potatoes seem to be cooking too quickly, reduce heat to medium. Serve topped with chopped chives.

GREEK FRENCH FRIES



Greek French Fries image

The smell of these babies frying in extra virgin olive oil reminds me of my childhood days in Kefalonia. The aroma would perfume the whole village when my yiayia would fry these potatoes. Back when I was a little girl in the 80's, Greeks were still only using extra virgin olive oil, even for frying. Nowadays, it's a bit different in Greece with cheaper oils readily available. You can use corn oil if you want to make these often, but you have to do it at least once with extra virgin olive oil. Don't be cheap.

Categories     Potato

Time 25m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

4 yukon gold potatoes, sliced as you desire
2 -3 cups extra virgin olive oil (or if you wanna deep fry them in that expensive liquid, use more)
salt
Greek oregano
pecorino romano cheese or kefalotiri
1/8-1/4 fluid ounce lemon juice

Steps:

  • In a large skillet, heat the olive oil. To test when it's ready, use the handle on a wooden spoon by placing it erect in the oil. If bubbles start forming around it, you know it's ready.
  • Add the potatoes, being careful not to crowd them. If you put too many, the temperature of the oil will drop, and they will come out mushy. Fry them in batches instead.
  • Once golden brown, remove and place on paper towels.
  • Season with salt, pepper, and oregano.
  • Add some grated cheese if you wish. Just remember not to salt the potatoes too much if you add the cheese.
  • A few drops of lemon juice on top is a must for my Greek taste buds.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, high-quality potatoes for the best flavor and texture.
  • Cut the potatoes into uniform pieces so that they cook evenly.
  • Soak the potatoes in cold water for 30 minutes before frying to help them crisp up.
  • Heat the oil over medium-high heat before adding the potatoes. This will help prevent them from sticking to the pan.
  • Cook the potatoes in a single layer so that they can brown evenly.
  • Season the potatoes with salt, pepper, and other herbs and spices to taste.
  • Serve the potatoes immediately with your favorite dipping sauce.

Conclusion:

Greek home fries are a delicious and easy-to-make dish that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. They are perfect for a quick and easy weeknight meal or for a special occasion brunch. With just a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a flavorful and satisfying dish that the whole family will love.
