Potatoes
-
4 medium/large russet potatoes
-
1/4 cup organic extra virgin olive oil

1/2 tsp salt

1/4 cup fresh chopped parsley
-
1/4 cup freshly chopped rosemary or 2 t. dried rosemary.

If you are a saucy person, try this Lebné dipping sauce. (Be curious about Lebné! It is a staple in the Lebanese diet and is a probiotic similar to yoghurt.)
Lebné Dipping Sauce
-
4 oz. Lebné or Plain Greek yoghurt
-
3 tbsp organic extra virgin olive oil
-
Salt and pepper
-
Mint leaves on the side
1. Preheat oven to 425 F. Cut potatoes into 1 inch cubes.
Add to a large bowl, and toss with olive oil, za’atar, salt, and pepper.
Spread potatoes evenly onto a nonstick baking sheet or line with parchment paper.
Place potatoes in a single layer so they bake evenly and get crisp.
Bake for 30 minutes, then flip them over with a spatula.
Cook another 15 minutes until potatoes are golden and crispy.
Serve with protein of your choice.
