Peel and wash the potatoes, and cut them lengthwise into thick wedges. Place the wedges in a large, shallow baking dish and season with salt, pepper, oregano, and thyme as desired. Squeeze the lemons and drizzle the juice and olive oil over the potato wedges. Add a good 100 ml of lukewarm water; the potato wedges should now be almost covered. Bake on the middle rack of a preheated oven at 200°C (top/bottom heat) for about 50 minutes. The water should then evaporate and the potato wedges should be lightly browned. These potatoes are a perfect accompaniment to exotic meat dishes.
