Categories     Vegetable     Bake     Vegetarian

Yield 3-4 people

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 onion
3 cloves of garlic
Olive oil (lots)
3 carrots
3(ish) potatoes
head of broccoli
2 capsicums
4 tomatoes
cup of red wine
tomato paste
1/3 cup of olives
afew sprigs of rosemary
sprig or two of thyme
handful of parsely (flat-leaf preferably)
salt and pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Chop carrots, potatoes, broccoli, capsicums and tomatoes into medium size pieces and combine in some kind of baking dish. Add a splash of olive oil to a frying pan and heat to a medium-high temp, add chopped onions and garlic (I usually add the garlic afew minutes afew to avoid it burning). Fry for 5-10 mins and combine with other vegetables. Now throw in wine, a good wollop of tomato paste, olives, rosemary and thyme and a large amount of olive (maybe 1/3 to half a cup). Season with a bit of salt and pepper then put in oven (uncovered). My oven has no temperature on it so I couldn't tell you how hot exactly, but its a bit over medium heat. Cook until your potatoes have cooked properly and the sauce has become nice and thick (it should not be soupy). Be sure to take it out and stir from time to time. Remove from oven and mix in a handful of fresh, chopped parsely. Season if need be. Yum!

Tips:

  • Prepare Vegetables Properly: Before cooking, wash and cut vegetables uniformly for even cooking.
  • Use Fresh, Seasonal Vegetables: Fresh vegetables offer the best flavor and nutrients.
  • Choose a Variety of Colors: Incorporate a variety of colorful vegetables for a visually appealing and nutrient-rich dish.
  • Use Good Quality Olive Oil: Extra virgin olive oil adds flavor and health benefits to the dish.
  • Season Generously: Use a blend of herbs, spices, and salt to enhance the natural flavors of the vegetables.
  • Don't Overcook Vegetables: Overcooked vegetables lose their texture, flavor, and nutrients. Cook until tender yet slightly crisp.

Conclusion:

Italian-style vegetables are a delicious and versatile side dish that can complement a variety of main courses. With the right combination of vegetables, herbs, and spices, you can create a flavorful and healthy dish that is sure to impress. Experiment with different vegetable combinations and seasonings to find your favorite variation. Whether you prefer roasted, sautéed, or grilled vegetables, this classic Italian dish is a great way to enjoy the bounty of fresh produce.
