Greek Style Lemon Roasted Potatoes… MMMM!
Who remembers this classic recipe? The original calls for chicken broth and roasting for an hour.
Ain’t nobody got time for that.
So, we shortened the cooking time using our trusty Acti Fry. If you haven’t heard of one these babies, you might want to look into them! You’re able to cook/fry food with a teeny tiny bit of oil and it still gets super crispy. We use our Acti Fry almost every single day, it’s crazy.
Sometimes we even cook things with no oil and it works just fine!
These Greek Style Lemon Roasted potatoes are super crispy, tangy and perfectly spiced with garlic, pepper and oregano. The original recipes call for 1/3 of a cup of oil.
This recipe uses 1.5 tbsp oil for 3 medium potatoes! That’s why we love the Acti Fry SO much.
how do you make vegan lemon roasted potatoes?
Start by chopping your potatoes into the size you’d like them to be- we did bigger chunks.
Place them in your air fryer.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the juice from half a lemon, the oil, garlic powder and black pepper. Pour over the potatoes.
Turn on the fryer and cook the potatoes for 15 minutes. Open, add oregano and a pinch of salt. Close and cook again for another 5-10 minutes. The potatoes should be crispy on the edges.
When they’re done, place them in a serving bowl and squeeze the other half of the lemon over before serving.
Done!

I think your spice and lemon mix is spot on. But… I am going to sound preachy here. IF you are doing potatoes in an air fryer cut them the way you want. Rinse several times in cold water. Let soak in cold water for 30 mins. Then dry on towels or paper towels. Then add seasoning and juice or whatever. Let rest for a few minutes . Then add the oil. Mix well. pre-heat fryer for 2 mins. then cook and shake often. I have used an air fryer for years and have found this method of doing spuds has worked very well. Again I apologize for being preachy. Carry on and stay safe.
