Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 2 pounds potatoes red, Yukon Gold, or baby potatoes, cut into chunks
  • 3 tbsp olive oil or butter
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 1/4 cup lemon juice freshly squeezed (plus zest, optional)
  • 1 tsp dried oregano preferably Greek oregano

Method
 

  1. Wash and cut the potatoes into evenly sized chunks.
  2. Place the potatoes in the slow cooker. Drizzle with olive oil and add garlic, lemon juice, and oregano. Season with salt and pepper.
  3. Stir gently to coat the potatoes evenly.
  4. Cover and cook on LOW for 4–5 hours, or until the potatoes are tender.
  5. Optional: For a crisp finish, transfer the cooked potatoes to a baking sheet and broil for 3–5 minutes until golden.
  6. Garnish with fresh parsley and serve warm.

Notes

To make the dish vegan, skip butter and use olive oil. For added flavour, try tossing in Kalamata olives or crumbled feta just before serving.
