Steps
- 01
Preheat oven to 200°C (180°C fan) and prepare a deep roasting pan.
- 02
Wash and peel 1.2kg potatoes; cut large potatoes into thick wedges about 3cm wide and medium potatoes into roughly three chunks.
- 03
Combine potatoes, 375ml low-sodium chicken broth, 120ml oil, 80ml lemon juice, five grated garlic cloves, 1 tbsp oregano and 2 tsp salt in the roasting pan.
- 04
Roast for 20 minutes at 200°C, then carefully remove the hot pan and turn the potatoes.
- 05
Roast another 25–30 minutes until most broth has soaked in or evaporated, leaving mostly oil in the pan.
- 06
For more golden edges, transfer the potatoes to a second baking tray and drizzle over some flavored oil from the first pan.
- 07
Roast the transferred potatoes for another 35–40 minutes, turning once or twice, until edges are golden and centers tender.
- 08
If desired, return the first pan of garlic-rich juices to the oven during the last 5–10 minutes to reduce, watching carefully to avoid burning.
- 09
Plate the potatoes, spoon over reduced garlic juices, and optionally garnish with wedges of one lemon and two sprigs of oregano. Divide into five portions.
- 10
Refrigerate leftover potatoes in shallow containers within two hours, use within 3–4 days and reheat to a center temperature of 74°C.
Before you cook
Handle hot roasting pans containing broth and oil carefully to prevent burns. Check chicken-broth labels for allergens. Chill leftovers in shallow containers within two hours, consume within 3–4 days and reheat to 74°C in the center.
Allergens: packaged chicken broth may include soy, wheat, celery or other ingredients; check labels
