Potatoes with Lemon

The recipe below is taken from one of Rose and Ruth’s earlier cookbooks, A Taste of the River Cafe.  These potatoes are delicious with any roast, or with grilled fish. Roasted potatoes

500g waxy potatoes
2 cloves garlic
2 lemons
4T marjoram leaves
Extra virgin olive oil

  1. Preheat the oven to 220°C.
  2. Scrub and cut the potatoes in half lengthways, and each half  lengthways again. Peel and chop the garlic.
  3. Cut the lemons in half lengthways, and each half into three and each third into half. Put in a bowl with the potatoes, squeezing the juice out of the lemon pieces with your hands as you mix.
  4. Add the garlic, marjoram, salt and pepper and enough olive oil to moisten well. Tip into an ovenproof dish.
  5. Roast for ½ hour, until they are cooked and brown. Halfway through, turn the pieces over.
