8 large potatoes, peeled, cut into large wedges
4 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 cup olive oil
1 cup water
1 tablespoon dried oregano
1 lemon(juice only)
Sea salt
Sea salt
Fresh coarse ground black pepper
Preheat oven to 420°F
Spray the baking pan with Pam
Put all the ingredients into a baking pan large enough to hold them, generously season with sea salt and black pepper, toss to distribute.
Mix water, lemon juice and oil.
Drop garlic into the water/oil solution, its flavor will permeate the potatoes, and this way, it won't burn.
Bake for 40 minutes.
When a nice golden-brown crust has formed on the potatoes, give them a stir to bring the white underside up, season lightly with a bit more sea salt and pepper and just a light sprinkling of oregano.
Add 1/2 cup more water if pan begins loosing liquid and pop back into oven to brown other side of potatoes.
This will take about another 40 minutes.
Do not be afraid of overcooking the potatoes- they will be delicious
Love roasted potatoes! I use this recipe often {usually without the carrots}. And they just as yummy if you don't have time to marinate them.
