Instructions

  1. Prepare the Potatoes:
    • Preheat the oven to 200°C (392°F).
    • Wash 500 g of new potatoes thoroughly and place them in a baking tray.
    • If you prefer, remove the peels using a teaspoon, but keeping the peels is also fine.
    • Season the potatoes with salt and drizzle a little olive oil over them.
    • Mix everything well to ensure the potatoes are evenly coated.
    • Break a sprig of rosemary on top of the potatoes for added flavor.
    • Put the tray in the preheated oven and bake for about 30 minutes.
  2. Prepare the Cucumber Salad:
    • Take an English cucumber or any type you prefer and cut it into very thin slices.
    • Season the cucumber slices with salt and set them aside to allow the excess water to drain.
    • In a large bowl, add a few tablespoons of Greek yogurt.
    • Grate a clove of garlic into the yogurt and season with salt.
    • Drain the cucumber slices thoroughly to remove the excess water.
    • Add the drained cucumbers to the yogurt mixture.
    • Chop fresh dill and add it to the salad. Dill adds a refreshing summer flavor.
    • Mix everything well and drizzle a little olive oil on top.
    • Set the salad aside; it’s a perfect refreshment for hot summer days.
  3. Serve:
    • Once the potatoes are ready, you’ll hear a delightful crisp sound. They are super delicious!
    • Allow the potatoes to cool slightly and sprinkle fresh dill on top.
    • These potatoes pair wonderfully with a soft fried egg. The richness and taste are simply crazy!
