Have you ever roasted potatoes in a pool of lemony, garlicky broth? Well, me and Tom went to Santorini and we had these potatoes and they were so good. The people next to us screamed, “Congratulations.” Before you squeeze your lemon, zest it. It’s your free ingredient. And when you’re squeezing it, cut side up. So, no seeds get in the broth. I use rusted potatoes cuz they don’t fall apart in the oven. You’re going to go 40 minutes. Mix 40 minutes more at 400°. And when Tom took a bite, we both screamed, “Congratulations! recipe in the caption and happy cooking.

Cut side up is kinda dangerous without eye protection, I like to pass smaller citrus through a fork and bigger ones through… well.. a bigger fork
Recipe isn't in the caption. The source and link is but I'd rather have the recipe in the caption 😒
Where's the recipe?
Greek Lemon Potatoes
Ingredients
• 4–5 large russet potatoes, peeled and cut into wedges
• 3 lemons, juiced (about ½ cup juice total)
• 8 cloves garlic, minced
• 2 teaspoons salt
• Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
• 1½ tablespoons dried oregano
• 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
• 2 cups vegetable broth
• ½ cup olive oil
Instructions
1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
2. Prepare the potatoes:
Peel and cut russet potatoes into thick wedges. Set aside.
3. Make the marinade:
In a large casserole dish (the one you’ll bake in), whisk together the lemon juice, minced garlic, salt, pepper, oregano, Dijon mustard, vegetable broth, and olive oil until well combined.
4. Add potatoes:
Place the potato wedges directly into the marinade in the casserole dish. Toss well to coat all the potatoes evenly.
5. Roast:
Bake uncovered for 40 minutes. Remove from the oven, stir the potatoes gently, and spoon some of the sauce over them.
6. Continue baking:
Return to the oven for another 30–40 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender, golden brown, and most of the liquid has been absorbed or thickened.
7. Finish & serve:
Optional — squeeze a little extra fresh lemon juice over the top and sprinkle with a pinch more oregano before serving.
Tip: For crispy edges, broil for 5 minutes at the end of baking.
