- 4 medium Yukon gold potatoes 1 1/2 pounds
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon Greek seasoning equal parts oregano, dill, garlic and onion powder, salt and pepper
- 1/4 cup feta cheese crumbled
- Parsley and red onion finely chopped, for garnish
For the sauce
- 1/4 cup Greek yogurt plain
- 1/4 cup mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons fresh dill, chopped or 1 teaspoon dried dill
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/8 teaspoon salt
- water, if necessary for thinning
Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Prepare a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Wash the potatoes. Leaving the skins on. Cut the potatoes into fries.
Soak fries in cold water for 10 minutes.
Drain the potatoes and dry them thoroughly with a paper towel.
Add the fries to a bowl and toss them with the olive oil and Greek seasoning. Spread the fries out on the baking sheet so they aren’t touching.
Bake for 20 minutes. Flip and continue cooking for 8 to 10 minutes until they are crisp and golden brown.
Mix together the sauce ingredients in a bowl. Refrigerate as necessary until fries are done.
Transfer fries to a platter and top with the feta cheese crumbles. Add parsley and red onion. Serve with lemon wedges and lemon dill sauce.
- Use starchy potatoes like Russets for the crispiest fries. Their high starch content helps achieve that perfect golden-brown exterior.
- You can choose your cooking method for the fries. I usually bake them but they don't get as crispy as frying them. You can also use your air fryer.
- Eat your fries immediately after frying while they are still hot. They will fly off the plate.
