These One Pan Lemon & Oregano Roasted Greek Potatoes are crispy, fluff and packed with bright Mediterranean flavour – and the best part? Everything cooks in just one pan.
No par-boiling, no juggling trays, no complicated prep. Just potatoes, lemon, oregano, garlic and a few simple ingredients roasted together until the potatoes soak up all that incredible flavour and turn golden and crispy on the edges.
This is one of those recipes that proves simple food can be the best food. The potatoes roast directly in a lemony oregano broth, which slowly reduces in the oven and creates that classic Greek taverna-style texture, soft and fluffy inside, crispy outside, and ridiculously moreish.
Perfect as a side for roast chicken, grilled lamb, or honestly just on their own straight from the pan.
If you love big flavour, minimal washing up, and easy comfort food, this recipe is definitely for you.

5:36 oh wow i've never thought that part of the scissors could be used for that! thanks!
I was surprised by the amount of stock but I trust ya! Looks absolutely delicious ❤
Greek oregano is so easy to grow you'll have to kill it if you don't want it anymore
My wife's favourite potato recipe. Try some minced garlic and sprinkle parmesan cheese on at the end
Absolutely unwatchable….That annoyingly ignorant, loud and vomit inducing host has to go to make this even worth uploading.
Why don't you take out the CRAP bits in the Spuds??
Greek cuisine is not well known in the US, but if one has access to fresh ingredients, seafood especially, and is a minimally competent cook, it is worth the effort
I’m Greek and most weekends my mum made them with Greek salad and roasted chicken banging
Would love a video discussing potato types and uses, particularly on potato varieties that are available in other countries outside uk and usa
How about some cubed potatoes with rosemary olive oil and a bit of lemon
I agree about Maldon salt; the plastic packaging is a major pain!
You're terrible Poppy, because you make me so hungry!
Clean tray…. ? New tray ? Did you just buy that tray , there seems to be a barcode still on it …. I could be wrong….
Also the history of the Maris Piper is pretty interesting… Made (developed) in the UK … by the government organisation, which is now privatised , not sure if they’ve done any further developments on it .
Got them in the oven, more for tomorrow. Reckon I can crisp em up again in the air fryer?
Glad you're doing more of these… compared to four years ago 😉 I only found out about you from your Sorted appearances, but glad to have found you. You are really good at this. Informative yet fun. Thanks, Poppy!!
Can you use a different herb my hubby doesn' like oregano ❤
Mmmm, looks delicious. I'd throw a whole chicken on a rack above the potatoes.
Pepper cannon time. Let us know which one you settle on. Maybe a test run video for 3-4 options? Please?!
I watched u grinding in slow motion
Gonna try this tonight. My missus is greek so she always brings home several bottles of olive oil her mum makes from their own olive trees along with their own oregano and so many other amazing things.
Buy the Maldon salt in a bucket if the bag is too difficult to deal with . Lol
Please continue to show us how much pepper you use. I hate it when people use the automatic pepper grinder and use it for about 1 or 2 seconds. That’s rarely enough pepper unless the recipe is for a single amuse-bouche for an elf!
Poppy, grab a Mannkitchen pepper grinder. 3-4 grinds and you’re done. Best in the world! Love ya work!
