Ingredients

Greek Feta Fries

  • 2 garlic cloves
  • 1/2 lemon zested
  • 1 tbsp parsley chopped
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 cup (250 ml) Greek yogurt
  • 2 tbsp olive oil see notes
  • 4 large baking potatoes see notes
  • 1 tbsp sesame seeds black and white
  • 1/2 cup (100 g) feta cheese crumbled (see notes)

Instructions
 

Greek Feta Fries

  • Preheat your oven to 180C / 350F.
  • Add garlic to a chopping board along with the peel of half a lemon, parsley and salt. Use a knife to chop until finely chopped. Add half of it to a small mixing bowl along with 1 tbsp olive oil yogurt and mix until well combined.
  • Use a sharp knife to cut your potatoes in half, then cut in six slices. Turn them on their flattest side and cut even sized chips.
  • Add to a large mixing bowl along with 1 tbsp olive oil, salt and sesame seeds. Mix to coat the chips. Place on a baking tray making sure you space the chips apart. They mustn’t be touching otherwise they won’t crispen up. Bake for 20 minutes or until golden and crispy.
  • Sprinkle with remaining herb mix, crumbled feta and more chopped parsley.

Notes

Storage
These fries can be stored in an airtight container for up to three days. To reheat, simple place back on a baking tray and reheat until crispy again.
Potatoes
Use Yukon gold potatoes. They’re the best potatoes for baking French fries. Russet will also work but Yukon is best to use. Yukon potatoes may also be labeled as Gold or yellow potatoes.
Olive oil
I use extra virgin olive oil. I like the flavor. Vegetable oil will also work.
Feta cheese
I used dodoni feta cheese. Any will do. If you want a creamier option use danish feta. Although that doesn’t crumbled as easily. I would just chop it up and mix it into the herb mix.
