BAKED POTATOES WITH LEMON VINAIGRETTE


Ingredients
4 large russet potatoes cut lengthwise into wedges
4 tbsp lemon juice
2 cloves garlic
1 shallot chopped
4 tbsp olive oil
2 tsp dried oregano
salt as per taste
1 tbsp pepper

Method
Preheat oven to 425 F
Put olive oil , lemon juice, shallots, garlic in a blender . Puree until smooth .
Add salt and pepper.
Toss the potatoes with 1/2 of vinaigrette in a large bowl and spread in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet.
Roast the potatoes until tender and golden , turning occasionally 30 - 40 mins ( if you cut the wedges thin then it will take less time to bake)
Transfer the baked potatoes to a platter and drizzle remaining vinaigrette. Season with salt.

Note
You can use frozen french fries for this recipe. Put the frozen french fries on a baking sheet and pour the vinaigrette on it and mix well. Bake it at 425 F until it is golden brown . This is much easier.
