Description
These Greek Fries with Feta are crispy, golden baked fries tossed with herbs, fresh parsley, red onion, and creamy feta cheese for a Mediterranean-inspired side dish. They’re fresh, flavorful, and perfect served with tzatziki or lemon wedges.
Ingredients
4 large Yukon Gold potatoes, peeled if preferred
3 tbsp olive oil
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp dried oregano
1/2 tsp dried dill
1/2 tsp black pepper
1/2 tsp garlic powder
Toppings:
1/2 cup fresh parsley, finely chopped
1 medium red onion, finely chopped
1/4 cup feta cheese, crumbled
Optional:
Tzatziki, aioli, or lemon wedges for serving
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Wash and cut potatoes into 1/3-inch sticks. Soak in cold water for 10–15 minutes to remove excess starch, then drain and dry thoroughly.
- In a large bowl, toss potatoes with olive oil, salt, oregano, dill, black pepper, and garlic powder until evenly coated.
- Arrange fries in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they don’t overlap.
- Bake for 15 minutes, flip the fries, and bake another 6–8 minutes until golden and crispy.
- Meanwhile, chop parsley and red onion and crumble feta.
- Transfer hot fries to a serving platter and sprinkle with parsley, red onion, and feta while still warm.
- Serve immediately with tzatziki, aioli, or lemon wedges.
Notes
Add a drizzle of lemon juice or sprinkle of sumac for brightness.
Top with kalamata olives, tomatoes, or a yogurt drizzle for a loaded version.
Use Russet potatoes for an extra crispy texture.
For a spicy twist, add chili flakes or smoked paprika to the seasoning mix.
Reheat leftovers in an oven or air fryer at 400°F to restore crispiness.
