Ingredients

• 2 medium Zucchini
• 2 medium Eggplants
• 3 medium Potatoes
• 3 medium Tomatoes
• 1 large Red onion
• 3 Garlic cloves
• 100 ml Olive oil
• 3 tablespoons (chopped) Fresh parsley
• 2 tablespoons (chopped) Fresh dill
• 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
• 2 teaspoons Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 400 grams Canned crushed tomatoes
• 100 ml Water

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 180°C (356°F).

Step 2

Wash and prepare the vegetables. Slice the zucchini, eggplants, and potatoes into 1 cm thick rounds. Slice the tomatoes and onion thinly. Mince the garlic.

Step 3

In a large baking dish, layer the sliced vegetables, arranging them in alternating rows or haphazardly if you prefer a rustic look.

Step 4

In a mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, crushed tomatoes, water, minced garlic, parsley, dill, oregano, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to create a flavorful sauce.

Step 5

Pour the sauce evenly over the vegetables in the baking dish, making sure everything is coated.

Step 6

Cover the baking dish tightly with aluminum foil and place it in the preheated oven.

Step 7

Bake for 60 minutes covered, then remove the foil and bake for an additional 30 minutes to allow the vegetables to caramelize slightly on top.

Step 8

Check the vegetables with a fork. They should be tender and have absorbed the sauce.

Step 9

Remove from the oven and let it cool for 10 minutes before serving.

Step 10

Serve warm as a main dish with crusty bread or as a side dish to grilled meats or fish.
