I wasn't born Greek--but I sure love their food.
One healthy Greek side dish that is loved the world over is Greek potatoes. It is easy to make and complements just about any meat or vegetable dish. Below are the ingredients you need:
8 large potatoes, peeled and cut into large wedges
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 cup water heat and mix in 2 Chicken bullion cubes or just use canned chicken bullion
half a cup olive oil
1 tablespoon oregano
1 teaspoon dried dill weed
1/4 cup lemon juice
salt and pepper, to taste
Preheat your oven to 440 degrees F. Mix all the ingredients in a large baking pan, then add salt and black pepper to season. Use a ladle to mix and toss everything in the pan. The garlic mix will permeate the potatoes, adding a nice flavor to them. This will also keep them from getting burned easily. Bake everything for 40 minutes. Check if there is already a nice golden brown color on the side of the potatoes. If so, give them a stir or turn them over to bring the other side up. Season this with a bit more salt and pepper. Add half a cup more chicken bullion if the potatoes are beginning to dry. Put it back in the oven and let the other side of potatoes turn golden brown, after about another 40 minutes. Once the other side has turned golden brown, your potatoes are done. Add a sprinkle of oregano, let cool for a few minutes, then serve.
