Ingredients

• 4 large Russet potatoes
• 3 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 0.5 cup Feta cheese
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
• 1 tablespoon Fresh dill
• 1 medium Lemon

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).

Step 2

Wash and peel the russet potatoes. Slice them into 1/4-inch thick fries, ensuring they are as uniform as possible for even cooking.

Step 3

Place the sliced potatoes in a large bowl filled with cold water. Let them soak for about 10 minutes to remove excess starch, which helps them crisp up better.

Step 4

Drain the potatoes and pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel or paper towels.

Step 5

Transfer the dried potatoes back to the bowl and drizzle with olive oil. Sprinkle the dried oregano, salt, and black pepper over the top.

Step 6

Mix everything together until the fries are well coated in the oil and seasonings.

Step 7

Spread the fries out in a single layer on a large baking sheet, ensuring they are not overlapping.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the fries are golden brown and crispy. Flip them halfway through the cooking time for even browning.

Step 9

While the fries are baking, crumble the feta cheese and finely chop the fresh parsley and dill.

Step 10

Once the fries are done, remove them from the oven and let them cool slightly.

Step 11

Transfer the fries to a serving platter and sprinkle the crumbled feta cheese over the top.

Step 12

Garnish with the chopped parsley and dill.

Step 13

Cut the lemon into wedges and squeeze a little juice over the fries just before serving.

Step 14

Serve the Greek fries immediately while hot and crispy.
