Greek Fries and Yogurt Sauce


 Joseph and I hosted guests for a dinner party at our home recently and I made these Greek Potato Wedges as a side dish. They were wonderful and delicious. My children really enjoyed them because they take the French Fry to a whole new tastier level.

The Yogurt Dipping Sauce pairs really nicely with these fries. It reminds me of a Tzatziki sauce minus the cucumbers. 


Greek Potato Wedges

Ingredients

2 lbs. organic baby potatoes
1/3 cup olive oil
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon dried rosemary
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 cup fresh chopped organic dill
Zest of 1 organic lemon
Instructions
Preheat oven to 450 degrees and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Slice potatoes into wedges and place in a large ziplock bag.
In a small bowl whisk together olive oil, oregano, rosemary, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. 
Pour seasoning over wedges and seal the ziplock bag. Shake the bag around until every wedge is coated. 
Place coated wedges on a baking sheet in a single layer. 
Bake for 15 minutes, then flip the fries and bake for another 15 minutes.
Then, turn the heat up to 500 degrees and bake for 10 minutes until crispy. 
Remove from the oven and sprinkle with lemon zest and dill.
