Recipe instructions

Step 1

Step 1
How to bake zucchini, eggplant, potatoes in the oven? Very simple! To begin, prepare all the necessary ingredients according to the list. I used young zucchini, but you can also use regular zucchini. Choose eggplants that are dense, not limp, with elastic, shiny skin. Turn on the oven at 180°C in advance.

Step 2

Step 2
Wash the eggplant, cut into slices 5-6 mm thick. Salt the chopped eggplants and leave for about 10-15 minutes until the juice is released. Drain the resulting liquid and rinse the eggplants. This is necessary to remove the bitterness from vegetables. Please note that in some cases there is no need to remove bitterness from eggplants — usually young vegetables, as well as some special varieties, are not bitter. My eggplants were not bitter, so I didn’t sprinkle them with salt.

Step 3

Step 3
Wash the zucchini. If using zucchini with skin, scrub it with a brush. Dry the vegetables. Cut the zucchini into thin slices no more than 5 mm thick.

Step 4

Step 4
Peel the potatoes and scrub with a brush. If the potatoes are young, you don’t have to cut the skin off. Cut the potatoes into slices about 5 mm thick. Please note that the cooking time depends on the type of potato. Therefore, it is important to choose the right potatoes that are suitable for baking. Read about it at the end of the recipe.

Step 5

Step 5
Wash the tomatoes, dry and cut into slices. Choose tomatoes that are juicy but firm. Soft fruits do not hold their shape well; during cutting and cooking, they will spread into a shapeless mass and spoil the appearance of the dish.

Step 6
Peel the garlic and finely chop it.

Step 7

Step 9

Step 9
Cover the pan with foil and place in an oven preheated to 180°C for 45-50 minutes. The exact time depends on your oven, the thickness of the vegetable slices and your taste preferences. If you like softer vegetables, bake a little longer. Read about foil and the operation of different ovens in the article at the end of the recipe.
