Cooking Yogurt and Baked Potatoes in the Oven: Oven-Roasted Potatoes

My healthy oven-roasted potatoes recipe is possibly the most delicious yogurt potatoes recipe you’ve ever cooked at home!

➡️On this page, I share a simple but very delicious side dish that fits perfectly on any grill or roast: oven-roasted potatoes with Greek yogurt dressing, a recipe that I call simple yogurt roasted potatoes. Potatoes are a staple food in many parts of the world and the United States is no exception, many of us like potatoes in various forms because they are filling and cheap.

➡️ Often, when used as a side dish, potatoes are prepared in the form of puree or fries. But who says we can’t cook them in a more creative, super delicious, and, in addition, healthy way? As I mentioned, the recipe I share on this page is very tasty and, on top of that, very easy to prepare, so it’s worth trying it at least once. You will definitely make this recipe very often afterward!

➡️ If you think it’s a complicated recipe with many hard-to-find ingredients, you’re wrong. If you are unclear about what Greek yogurt means, well, it’s yogurt with a higher fat content, which gives it a firm texture and the dressing prepared with it will not be runny, as would a dressing made with plain yogurt. Just watch the cooking video below and learn more about my recipe for the yogurt roasted potatoes!

Final Notes for the Healthy Oven-Roasted Potatoes with Yogurt Dressing

➡️ Oven-roasted potatoes have a crispy outside and a tender interior. Above all, they’re great as a side dish for lunch or dinner. Oven potatoes are one of my best side dishes and especially combined with baked chicken. Needless to say, these oven-roasted potatoes go great with your beloved vegetarian main dishes if you’re a vegan or vegetarian. Here are a few suggestions to help you get the best results from my healthy oven-roasted potatoes recipe:

it’s mandatory to use Greek yogurt for this recipe, the regular one is too watery and you will not have great results with it
the quantities of honey and mustard can be adjusted according to your personal preferences, which also applies to garlic
instead of parsley, you can use other aromatic herbs such as dill, coriander, mint, or basil
it’s very important to cut the potatoes into medium-thickness slices, the ones that are too thin will dry excessively, while the ones that are too thick can remain raw inside
it’s also very important to put the potato slices in a single layer on the tray
don’t roast potatoes excessively, you know they are ready when you see they are slightly golden
don’t prepare the Greek yogurt dressing in advance, it tends to get watery in a pretty short time
serve the side dish a short time after it’s ready because the yogurt dressing tends to get watery and the roasted potatoes will soften
