Crispy on the outside, tender on the inside oven fries. These Greek fries are baked in extra virgin olive oil and finished with flavors like garlic, oregano and feta. Add a side ofhomemade Tzatziki for dipping!
Patates Tiganites are the Greek version of fries. They’re not thin like the French fries you’d get at an American restaurant. They’re hand-cut potatoes (thicker sticks) typically fried in about 3 inches or so of extra virgin olive oil.
Mom-and-pop Greek restaurants will serve these olive oil fried potatoes on a platter as an appetizer for sharing or even in your gyro wrap! And at home, they might be served as a snack, side, or as part of a small meal next to Greek salad and eggs! Or, serve them alongside salmon burgers for a Mediterranean-style twist on the classic burger and fries.
