Pour the pureed tomatoes over the vegetables, then drizzle generously with olive oil. Sprinkle with chopped parsley, sea salt, and freshly ground black pepper. Toss gently to coat the vegetables evenly in the tomato-olive oil mixture. (5 minutes)
04 Step
Recipe View
Bake in the preheated oven for 1 hour. Gently stir the vegetables to prevent sticking and ensure even cooking. Continue baking until the vegetables are tender, slightly caramelized, and most of the moisture has evaporated, approximately 30 minutes more. (1 hour 30 minutes)
05 Step
Recipe View
Remove from the oven and let the briam cool slightly before serving. Garnish with additional fresh parsley and a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil. Serve warm or at room temperature. (10 minutes)
For a richer flavor, add a clove or two of minced garlic to the tomato puree before pouring it over the vegetables.
Feel free to experiment with other vegetables, such as bell peppers or eggplant.
The baking time may vary depending on your oven and the thickness of your vegetable slices. Check for tenderness with a fork.
Briam is delicious served with a chunk of feta cheese, crusty bread, or a dollop of Greek yogurt.
