  • 5 clovesgarlic, lightly crushed, skins on
  • 2 tspdried oregano
  • 1 1/4 cupsvegetable stock, hot
  • 1 1/2 tspsea salt
  • 1/2 tspblack pepper

Method

  1. 1

    Heat the oven to 400°F. Toss the potato wedges in a roasting pan with the olive oil, lemon juice, crushed garlic, oregano, salt and pepper until every piece is slick.

  2. 2

    Pour the hot vegetable stock down the side of the pan so it comes about a third of the way up the potatoes, and shake the pan level.

  3. 3

    Cover the pan tightly with foil and roast until a knife slides into a wedge without resistance.

  4. 4

    Take the foil off, turn the wedges over and roast until the liquid has reduced to a glossy syrup in the base of the pan and the edges have caught.

  5. 5

    Let them sit for five minutes, then scrape the syrup up from the pan and spoon it back over the top.
