“I absolutely adore this recipe. I made it for my darling 5 children so they could eat it after soccer practice (you know how kids are). I quite like the lemon, since my father has a terrible memory and keeps buying lemons despite us having cartons full of citr” — a cook, 5.0★
“Great addition to my meal. I normally make Greek lemon potatoes, these were less time consuming, less cost and better tasting. Served with grilled butterflied lamb, cucumber salad, Greek salad and tzatziki. Just broiled an additional few minutes, since I can” — a cook, 5.0★
