Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Place a rack in the middle.
- Place sliced potatoes and zucchini in a large mixing bowl. Season with kosher salt, pepper, oregano, and rosemary. Add fresh parsley, garlic, and a generous drizzle extra virgin olive oil. Toss to make sure the vegetables are well coated with the EVOO and spices.
- Grab a large round pan on skillet (I used an 11-inch oven safe pan. See notes for more options.) Pour 1/2 of the canned diced tomatoes in and spread to cover the bottom of the pan.
- Arrange the seasoned potatoes, zucchini, and sliced onions in the pan in rows (simply going around the shape of the pan and alternating.)
- If you have any of the extra virgin olive oil and garlic mixture left in the mixing bowl, pour that all over the veggies, then top with the remaining diced tomatoes from your can.
- Cover the pan with foil (tent foil a bit so it is not touching the veggies). Bake in 400 degrees F heated-oven for 45 minutes. Take pan out briefly to carefully remove foil, then place back in oven, uncovered, and roast for another 30-40 minutes or until the veggies are soft and charred and most of the liquid has evaporated. (ovens do vary, so pay attention and check as needed.)
- Remove from oven. Serve warm or at room temperature with an added generous drizzle of extra virgin olive oil. (see suggestions for to serve along.)

Steps:
- To prepare this delicious briam recipe, start by preparing your vegetables. Peel and cut the potatoes in slices. Wash thoroughly the courgettes and aubergines and slice into 1cm slices. Alternatively you can cut the vegetables in chunks. Peel the tomatoes and cut into thin slices. (You can also use green bell peppers).
- To bake the briam use a large baking pan, approx. 30*35cm, so that the vegetables are not layered too deep.
- Layer the bottom of the pan with sliced tomatoes and season. Place on top the sliced vegetables and season well. Sprinkle with the onion and garlic and top with the rest of the tomatoes. Season well, garnish with chopped parsley and drizzle with olive oil.
- Cover the briam with aluminum foil and bake in preheated oven at 200C (both top and bottom heating elements on) for 1 1/2 to 2 hours. Uncover the briam halfway through cooking time, toss the vegetables and continue baking until nicely coloured.
- Serve this traditional briam dish with salty feta cheese and lots of bread. Enjoy!

Steps:
- Prepare all your vegetables by slicing the eggplants, potatoes, and zucchini into ½" slices. Next, chop the onions and the garlic, cut the peppers into 1" chunks, and mince the fresh herbs.
- Preheat the oven to 375°F.
- Drizzle some of the olive oil into a large frying pan, set over medium heat. When the oil is hot, cook the eggplants for 5-6 minutes until they become soft and golden brown (you might need to add a bit more olive oil during the frying, as the eggplants absorb a good amount of olive oil as they cook). Transfer the eggplant to a large, ovenproof dish.
- To the same frying pan add some more olive oil, and, once the oil is heated, add the chopped onion and peppers. Cook for two minutes and add the garlic. Cook a few minutes more, then transfer to the baking dish.
- Add the potatoes and the zucchini to the baking dish-uncooked--and toss. Cut the tomatoes into chunks (or in half, if you are using cherry tomatoes), and add them to the dish along with the tomato passata, the dried and fresh herbs, and the remaining olive oil. Season everything generously with salt and pepper to taste and combine gently.
- Pour ¾ cup of the water into the corner of the baking dish then tilt it so the water distributes evenly.
- Bake for about 45-60 minutes, or, until the vegetables are soft and golden brown. Make sure to check the liquid in the dish (about half way through) and add the rest of the water if necessary. At the end of the cooking time, there should be just a little sauce at the bottom of the baking dish.
- Let the briam rest for 10 minutes or so to cool down slightly. Serve warm or at room temperature with some Greek Feta on the side and some delicious bread to mop up the sauce!
