Serves 10
20 Desiree (or any good roasting) potatoes
150 ml olive oil
1 tablespoon dried Greek oregano
1 teaspoon sea salt flakes
Preheat oven to 180°C.
Peel potatoes and halve lengthways.
To prevent cutting all the way through the potato when making the slashes on top, place a chopstick or similar on each side of the potato and cut through to the chopsticks as shown in the picture.
Brush well with olive oil and bake, turning every now and then, until golden brown.
Grind oregano and salt together until fine.
To serve, sprinkle with oregano salt to taste.
