Greek style roasted potatoes are flavourful, lemony, and perfectly crispy on the outside, and soft in the middle. They are oil free, made using only 7 simple ingredients, and the perfect side dish to compliment your main course. These Greek potatoes are naturally gluten free, and their also vegan, making them suitable for any diet.
Since these Greek potatoes cook in a bath of broth, lemon and herbs, they really absorb a TON of flavour. Each bite is loaded with deliciousness!

How to make Greek Potatoes
Start by peeling and quartering your potatoes. Then combine all the remaining ingredients in a small bowl or measuring cup. Layer your potatoes in a deep baking dish, without overlapping too much.
Then pour the mixture over them. Cover your dish with parchment paper and then aluminum foil and roast for 30 minutes.
Then uncover the potatoes and roast an additional 30 minutes or so. You want most of the liquids to be absorbed, but not completely dry so watch carefully towards the end of cooking. The cooking time may vary depending on the size of your baking dish, and how close together your potatoes are.
Once the potatoes are ready, you may sprinkle some cilantro or parsley over top to add a little colour, and serve with slices of lemon if desired.
These potatoes pair really well with these Vegan Chicken Burgers or this super simple 5 Minute Chickpea Salad Sandwich. Enjoy!

Buon appetito,
Rosa
Ingredients
- 6-8 russet potatoes peeled and quartered lengthwise
- 2 cups low sodium vegetable broth
- 1 lemon juiced
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1/4 tsp sea salt
- 1 tsp oregano
- 1 tbsp corn starch
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F convection roast. (You may use convection bake if you do not have a roast setting.)
- Arrange your quartered potatoes in a 9x13 baking dish in a single layer.
- Add all remaining ingredients in a small bowl and whisk to combine. Then pour the mixture over your potatoes. Cover your baking dish with parchment paper and aluminum foil and roast for 30 minutes.
- Then remove the foil and paper and roast for an additional 30 minutes or until most of the liquids are absorbed. Gently toss the potatoes roughly halfway to help crisp up all the edges and prevent sticking.
I am going to try these tonight but I was curious if I could use cooked potatoes. Do you think I ruin the flavor or crispiness? I often pressure cook a batch of potatoes and put in the fridge for a day. I understand it changes the glycemic index.
Hi Andrea, I don’t think the cooked potatoes will absorb much of the broth and lemon juice, so they likely wouldn’t crisp up. If you’re willing to give it a try, I’d love to hear how it turns out.
So so love potatoes – this makes me want potatoes for dinner today -and I just had them for lunch! 🙂
Haha I love potatoes any time! 🙂
