Briam
Also known as: Μπριάμ
Greek oven-roasted tomatoes, potatoes, aubergines and courgettes with olive oil and parsley.
About Briam
Briam is a Greek ladera dish of mixed summer vegetables slowly roasted with olive oil. This profile follows a traditional tomato, potato, aubergine and courgette version with onion, garlic and parsley.
Ripe tomatoes release sweet acidity into the mild potatoes, aubergines and courgettes. Red onion and garlic deepen the savoury flavour, while parsley and olive oil keep the vegetables fresh and rounded.
The vegetables soften into a colourful, rustic tray bake with browned edges and concentrated tomato juices. The pieces remain distinct but tender, coated in a glossy layer of olive oil rather than a thick sauce.
