Instructions:
Prepare the Potatoes:
Preheat your oven to 200°C (392°F).
Wash and scrub the potatoes thoroughly.
Slice each potato lengthwise, but not all the way through, leaving them attached at the bottom.
Add Garlic:
Chop the garlic finely.
Insert the chopped garlic into the slits of each potato.
Prepare the Foil:
Cut pieces of aluminum foil into small cups or boats.
Place each potato in a foil boat and arrange them on a baking sheet.
Make the Butter and Oil Mixture:
In a small bowl, mix melted butter and vegetable oil.
Add salt and oregano, stirring to combine.
Drizzle and Coat:
Drizzle the butter mixture over the potatoes, ensuring it seeps into the slits.
Use a brush to evenly coat the entire potato.
Bake:
Sprinkle extra salt if desired.
Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake for 50 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender and golden.
Serve:
Remove the potatoes from the oven and let them cool slightly.
Serve hot directly from the foil or transfer to a serving dish.
Serving Suggestions:

Pair with grilled meats, roasted vegetables, or fresh salads.
Add sour cream or Greek yogurt for extra flavor.
Serve alongside soups or stews for a hearty meal.
Tips for Success:
Cut deep slits into the potatoes without slicing through completely.
Adjust seasoning according to your preference.
Check doneness by piercing the potatoes with a fork.
