Briam – Baked Mediterranean Vegetables

👨‍🍳 Method

1. 1
   Preheat the oven to 190°C (375°F).

   ⚙ Preheating the OvenOven

   💡Put things in the oven only once it's reached temperature, after the heating light has gone off: an oven that hasn't reached temperature changes baking times, and the bake burns outside or stays underbaked.
2. 2
   In a large baking dish, arrange alternating layers of the vegetables, zucchini, eggplant, tomatoes and onion and scatter the garlic between the layers.
