Description

Crispy Greek-style fries topped with a creamy and tangy feta yogurt sauce, infused with fresh herbs and lemon juice. This easy appetizer or snack brings a flavorful Mediterranean twist to classic baked french fries, perfect for any gathering or casual meal.

Ingredients

French Fries

  • 32 oz french fries (pre-cut, frozen)

Feta Yogurt Sauce

  • 4 oz feta cheese, crumbled
  • 1 cup plain yogurt
  • ½ cup sour cream
  • 1 large garlic clove, minced
  • 2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon freshly chopped parsley
  • 1 tablespoon freshly chopped dill
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • Salt to taste

Instructions

  1. Bake the Fries: Preheat your oven and bake the frozen french fries according to the package directions, but opt for the longer end of the suggested baking time to achieve extra crispy, browned fries that will hold up well under the sauce.
  2. Prepare the Feta Yogurt Sauce: While the fries bake, combine the crumbled feta cheese, plain yogurt, sour cream, minced garlic, lemon juice, chopped parsley, chopped dill, dried oregano, and salt to taste in a medium bowl. Mix thoroughly and set aside. Allowing the sauce to sit for a few hours or even overnight enhances the flavor.
  3. Salt the Fries: Once the fries are done and removed from the oven, immediately sprinkle them with salt while they are still hot so the salt adheres well.
  4. Assemble the Dish: Transfer the fries to a large serving platter or bowl and drizzle the prepared feta yogurt sauce evenly over the top using a spoon or ladle.
  5. Garnish and Serve: Optionally, garnish with extra crumbled feta and fresh herbs such as parsley or dill for added flavor and presentation. Serve immediately and enjoy your Greek-inspired fries.

Notes

  • For best flavor, prepare the feta yogurt sauce several hours ahead or the day before to allow the flavors to meld.
  • Use freshly baked and extra crispy fries to prevent sogginess after adding the sauce.
  • Adjust the salt according to taste, keeping in mind the feta cheese adds natural saltiness.
  • This dish works great as an appetizer, side dish, or snack.
  • To make it vegetarian-friendly, ensure the fries are cooked without animal fats.
