Mediterranean Baked Vegetables are a dish that takes me back in time, to the summers spent in Puglia, where my grandmother prepared them with fresh vegetables from her garden. The scent of rosemary and sage that came from the oven was unmistakable, an invitation to the table that no one could resist. This recipe is a tribute to those memories, a way to bring a little sunshine and flavors of the South into my kitchen. Each vegetable has a very specific role in this dish. Zucchini, with their delicacy and soft texture, go perfectly with the sweetness of peppers, which add a touch of color and vibrancy. Eggplant, with its slightly bitter taste, creates an interesting contrast, while carrots give a note of sweetness and crunchiness. Potatoes, finally, make the dish more substantial and satisfying. Extra virgin olive oil, salt, pepper, rosemary and sage are the ingredients that bind all these flavors together, creating a perfect harmony. The onion, finely chopped and sautéed in the Thermomix®, adds an intense and deep aromatic base. To best prepare this dish with the Thermomix®, it is important to cut the vegetables into thin and uniform slices, so that they cook evenly. The Thermomix® is perfect for finely chopping the onion effortlessly and for gently browning it, enhancing its flavor. During baking, it is advisable to turn the vegetables halfway through cooking to ensure even browning. This recipe is extremely versatile and lends itself to numerous variations. For a vegetarian or vegan version, just use vegetables. You can add other seasonal vegetables, such as cherry tomatoes, red onions or mushrooms. As for the spices, you can also use oregano, thyme or basil. A touch of chili pepper can add a bit of spiciness. Mediterranean Baked Vegetables are an ideal side dish to accompany grilled meat or fish, but can also be enjoyed as a light and tasty single dish. They can be served hot, warm or cold, depending on taste. A great idea is to accompany them with a yogurt sauce or a tahini sauce. They can also be used to fill sandwiches or wraps. Leftover baked vegetables can be stored in the refrigerator for a couple of days. They can be reheated in the oven or in a pan. They can also be prepared in advance and stored in the refrigerator until ready to cook. In this case, it is advisable to add the extra virgin olive oil and spices just before baking.
