Description

This recipe features the best-tasting potatoes you'll ever try, coated in a flavorful garlic-oregano mayonnaise mixture and broiled to perfection. Easy to prepare and ideal as a side dish for any meal or BBQ, these potatoes are tender on the inside with a deliciously browned topping. Using real egg mayonnaise enriches the flavor and gives a creamy texture that complements the potatoes beautifully.


Ingredients

Potatoes

  • 5 potatoes, quartered

Mayonnaise Mixture

  • 3 tablespoons mayonnaise (real egg mayo)
  • 2 cloves garlic, crushed
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • Salt and pepper to taste


Instructions

  1. Prepare Ingredients: Gather all ingredients needed for the recipe to ensure smooth cooking.
  2. Make Mayonnaise Mixture: In a small bowl, combine the mayonnaise, crushed garlic, dried oregano, salt, and pepper. Mix thoroughly and set aside to let the flavors meld.
  3. Cook Potatoes: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the quartered potatoes and cook until they are almost done, about 10 minutes. Be careful not to overcook to prevent them from breaking apart. Drain and set aside to cool slightly.
  4. Prepare for Broiling: Preheat your oven broiler. Line a baking tray with aluminum foil and lightly grease it to prevent sticking.
  5. Arrange Potatoes: Place the cooked potatoes evenly on the prepared baking tray. Spoon the mayonnaise mixture generously over the potatoes to coat them.
  6. Broil Potatoes: Place the tray under the preheated broiler and cook until the potatoes are tender and the mayonnaise topping is lightly browned and bubbly, approximately 10 minutes. Keep an eye to avoid burning.
  7. Serve and Enjoy: Remove from the oven and serve the potatoes hot as a delicious side dish to your main meal or BBQ.

Notes

  • For a smoky flavor, you can grill the potatoes on aluminum foil, basting with the mayo mixture as they cook.
  • Be sure to use real egg mayonnaise for the best texture and taste.
  • Do not overcook the potatoes during boiling to maintain their shape and texture for broiling.
