Greek Style Potatoes: Three Different Recipes
Greek Style Potatoes
Three Different Recipes
Greek Mashed Potatoes: Skordalia
Ingredients:
- 1 pound of potatoes
- 8 garlic cloves, minced
- Pink Himalayan sea salt
- Pinch of oregano
- Ground pepper
- Extra Virgin olive oil
- 1/2 cup water
- 1 lemon, reserve juice
- 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
Method:
- Boil potatoes in large pot, in salted water. Cook until potatoes are tender, and remove from heat.
- Mash the potatoes in a mixer, along with the garlic, salt, pepper, oregano, olive oil, water, lemon juice, and vinegar.
- Only mix a few seconds until ingredients are well blended. Make sure you do not over mix.
- We typically eat Skordalia served cold, but you can enjoy it either warm or cold.
- Serve with fish, chicken, or any side vegetables.
Greek Style Potatoes: Patates Sto Fourno
Ingredients:
- 5 medium russet potatoes
- 1 tablespoon dry oregano
- 1 tablespoon dry basil
- Juice of two lemons, reserve some juice for the final touch
- 3/4 cup of extra virgin olive oil
- 2 garlic cloves, whole
- Pink Himalayan sea salt
- 1/2 cup water
- Ground black pepper
Method:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Place potatoes in a large baking dish, making sure to layer the potatoes on top of each other. Drizzle olive oil over the top, and add water, herbs, garlic, lemon juice, and salt & pepper.
- Bake for 1 hour, or until the juice has evaporated. The potatoes will be golden brown on top. (If the potatoes are dry, add another 1/4 cup of water to add over the potatoes.)
- Serve with fresh oregano over the top, and a drizzle of olive oil.
Fried Greek Potatoes: Patates Tiganites
Ingredients:
- 4 large russet potatoes
- Extra virgin olive oil
- 2 tablespoons oregano
- 1 tablespoon basil
- 1 lemon, reserve juice
- Sea salt
Method:
- In a large saucepan, add the oil over medium heat.
- Peel potatoes, and cut your potatoes into chips.
- Place potatoes into hot oil, and fry until each side of the potato is golden brown.
- (I love when they are crisp, so I cook mine for quite a while.)
- Remove from oil, and drain oil over a plate, lined with a paper towel.
- Season with spices, lemon, and salt.

WOW! I’ve just made your skordalia and it came out super delicious! I mashed the potatoes simply with the fork and added all the ingredients listed. I found the addition of oregano a big improvement compared to the recipe I used before! Thanks a lot for posting this recipe!
