GREEK LOADED FRIES

Steps:

• Toss the French fries with the dried oregano and olive oil, then cook following pack instructions.
• While the fries are cooking, mix the cucumber with the black olives, cherry tomatoes and parsley. Mix the Greek yogurt with half of the crumbled feta in a separate bowl. Tip the fries into a serving dish, top with the salad and yogurt mixture, then scatter over the remaining crumbled feta. Season and serve.

GREEK FRENCH FRIES

Steps:

• In a large skillet, heat the olive oil. To test when it's ready, use the handle on a wooden spoon by placing it erect in the oil. If bubbles start forming around it, you know it's ready.
• Add the potatoes, being careful not to crowd them. If you put too many, the temperature of the oil will drop, and they will come out mushy. Fry them in batches instead.
• Once golden brown, remove and place on paper towels.
• Season with salt, pepper, and oregano.
• Add some grated cheese if you wish. Just remember not to salt the potatoes too much if you add the cheese.
• A few drops of lemon juice on top is a must for my Greek taste buds.

SIMPLE GREEK HOME FRIES IN A QUICKNESS

Steps:

• Wash and pierce potatoes and microwave 10 min (varies depending n power of microwave) until you can push a dent in to potatoes.
• Let cool.
• Slice in quarters then slice into 1/2 inch pieces.
• In the meantime add oil, garlic, pepper, oregano and diced onions in a large fry pan (big enough to hold potatoes).
• Sauté until just cooked, when onions turn translucent (about 3 minutes).
• Once potatoes are cut, add to fry pan, add butter and basil and cook over medium heat, stirring so potatoes can pick up all the juices and flavors.
• Turn to low, cover and let cook for an additional 10 minutes (approx) until potatoes get the crispy brown edges. mmmmm.
• Add lemon juice and mix.
• Serve.
• Note: times are approximately depending on microwave and stove type. I have propane so it cooks hot.
• ** Add in more or less spices to your liking. I need to adjust for students. With my family, I add in more garlic and lemon and no salt.
• ***Prep and cook times overlap- this is on the table at my home in less than 30 minutes start to finish.
