It’s an indispensable summer recipe! When there are a lot of different seasonal vegetables, it is very convenient to stew them together. Let’s do it the Greek way.
Where is the recipe from? From Copenhagen, oddly enough. 🙂 This year we rented an apartment in Copenhagen in a new complex in the Nordhavn neighborhood. The books were part of a perfectly Scandinavian-style room. Again, oddly enough, one of them was a big recipe book for Greek cuisine. Most likely, it was well fitting to the interior by the color of its cover. 🙂 During our trip, I studied it quite well and purchased one just like it to take home.
It’s a simple, healthy, bright and summertime recipe!
Bon Appétit!

When the vegetables are done, take them out of the oven and place them into the Dutch oven. Then add tomatoes (drain the juice beforehand) and spices. Season them with salt and pepper to taste and stir. Bring the dish to a boil and stew for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. In the end, add chopped parsley and basil leaves. The vegetables are done. You can eat them warm or cold. The dish will be even tastier the next day. |
