Being Greek I have had this my entire life. You can add any vegetable you want and don’t forget the potatoes! Delish !

Could eggplant be added as well?

[@kouklakee]

I would keep them on bottom too

[@johnkochanowski8194]

I was thinking of adding a layer of peelsd snd deveined shrimp for the last ten minutes of the uncovered time in the oven. Would the Greeks consider this sacrilegious or an acceptable option. I could also sauté the shrimp separately!

[@jaa4742]

Might switch out green peppers for red and yellow, add mushrooms. Looks awesome!

[@theoriginalbridgetconnors]

I would switch out the green peppers for a different color as well. It's not that I don't love green peppers, I can eat them raw all day long. However, when they are cooked, they do NOT agree with me at all.

[@lefty-bw1zp]

Orange peppers would work too.

[@droukak]

There are no wrong decisions here. Briam is a dish you can play around with, regarding veggies.

[@keenahudson1853]

One of my favourite dishes. I don't bother layering but just dump it all in. The top veges get a little browned. You can do lots of different vege combinations and more or less quantity. I also love red peppers and eggplant. Make it low carb and omit the potato. I do it as a side to a simple protein. And have plenty for leftovers.

[@rachellemazar7374]

I can’t wait to try this with a pot of beans😄

[@thaisstone5192]

(131) I had something VERY much like this at a Greek restaurant when I was living in NZ, I DO remember it also had dried mint in the seasonings as well. Well, I know damn well I'd be MORE than interested in making this. A high-summer tomato glut dish.

[@UnCoolDad]

Potatoes must go at the bottom to absorb any excess liquid from the vegetables.

[@agnieszkaczerwinska6640]

I prefer it when every type of vegetable gets a bit of caramelization and char. I don’t make it in layers, more of a juicy mess but regardless it’s delicious 👌🏻♥️

[@ro2670]

I just put mine in the oven and read your comment. I’m tempted to go mix it up but I’ll do it like that next time and use a more shallow, wider dish. Thanks for the inspiration.

Once the price of olive oil returns to sanity, I will definitely make this. With EVOO prices doubling recently, I'm rationing it.

[@tamcon72]

If you have a Middle Eastern grocery near you--not a high end one, just a regular one for the local ME community--you will most likely find good quality olive oil for much lower prices than grocery stores have.

[@HeatherValentineMsFoodie]

Cooking EVOO on that high of temp just destroys everything good and really can turn it into a carcinogenic.

[@johnnysyak4696]

LOL my butt off. hehehe. This recipe technique is VERY poor, as matter of fact, ATK, YOU PROVED IT YOURSELF as you did't even follow your OWN recomendation, and I might add, every chef's advice for preparing the zucchini BEFORE adding it to the final product.. In addition, the ONLY ways to distribute seasonings evenly, WITHOUT mixing again, such as done WRONGLY on every layer of this meal, except the first and last layers, as the first layer, when the ingredients dropped from a "container" were then mixed into the potatoes and the last layer, using fingers were the only 2 correct. The other layers were seasoned in a very poor technique, as you CANNOT control evenly distributiing of seasoning, using any wide mouth container, fighting gravity without "feel' of fingers, OR by NOT using a proper sprinkling container, such as a salt shaker or herb shaker designed to distribute those evenly. IN ANY FOOD that is layered and NOT mixed again, there is no substtitute for using clean fingers (or wear food gloves) to sprinkle the seaonings/herbs evenly by FEEL on anything that is NOT going to be mixed again. ELSE, each individual layer ingredients could have been inserted into a mixing bowl, separately to be sure, then seasoned with an open mouthed container, tossed/mixed AND THEN added to the final product in a layer. BOTH of these ways are PROPER cooking/chef techinques to season EVENLY and your way was NOT either of these. Another poor techinique was cooking the raw potatoes with the raw zucchini, as the zuc will be done MUCH sooner than the potatoes, then become mushy/soggy while wallowing waiting for the spuds to soften. To cook these together for the same amount of itme, the potatoes should have been parboiled or steam blanched. Ur welcome for the free cooking lesson given today ATK. I hope others shall learn proper technique. God Bless all.

If anything, it's actually too little. It's a Ladera dish (meaning with oil). It's supposed to have a lot of oil. Which actually increases the nutritional value of the dish as a lot of vitamins are lipophilic and aren't always properly absorbed without added fat
