Roasted Potatoes

What you need:

Boiler potatoes: I like purple. I mean, they‘re purple!!! White, yellow and red also work if you want to be boring.

Olive oil; and this is key: more than you think is sensible.

Salt

Oregano: again more than you think is sensible (see Instagram video)

Cut the potatoes into bite sized pieces. Put in a bowl with the olive oil, salt, and oregano.

Dump it on a sheet pan. (Don’t want to clean? Use parchment paper!)

Cook until brown at 400⁰F. If you want to toss you can…I tend to leave them alone.

Eat up!

My husband demands the dousing of these potatoes in lemon. He’s not wrong.

My kids love it and so it became the go-to potato in our home.

I have Elizabeth B to thank for this. She has the luxurious lifestyle of an academic that allows her to travel to Greece. She shared this one night at our home. Incidentally, that night our son invited her to his room and said, “I want to take you to my bed”; and “I’m going to turn off the lights.” He was 2. Her husband was “traveling”. I’m not sure he “knows about this”.
