Print the recipe here: https://www.dimitrasdishes.com/greek-lemony-smashed-potatoes/

Ingredients
2 pounds baby potatoes
salt, to taste
The Dressing:

1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
4 tablespoons butter, melted
2 tablespoons olive oil
1-2 teaspoons dried crushed oregano
4 cloves garlic, grated
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
Instructions
Place the potatoes in a saucepan and cover them with cold water. Add a teaspoon of salt and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium and cook until the potatoes are fork tender. About 20-25 minutes.

Preheat the oven to 500 °F, 250 °C.

Drain the potatoes and place them on a baking tray.

Using the bottom of a mug or a bowl, press the potatoes down to “smash” them. They should become about a half inch in thickness.

Combine the dressing ingredients and whisk them together.

Pour about a tablespoon of the dressing over each potato and season them generously with salt.

Roast them in the preheated oven on the middle rack for 15 minutes.

Turn the broiler on and leave the potatoes on the middle rack. Broil them for about 5 minutes or until crisp on top and golden.

Serve with tzatziki or lemon wedges.

Enjoy and Kali Orexi!

Notes
During the final 5 minutes of roasting/broiling add a cup of crumbled feta cheese on tip of the potatoes. Garnish with chopped parsley and serve.
