Potato Roast with Vegetables
Potato Roasted with Vegetables Recipe: Step 11
Summer is here and summer is a perfect time to enjoy vegetables it brings along.
Bell peppers, eggplants, potatoes roast together with olive oil based dressing with garlic and herbs can be a perfect dish on their own as well as a side dish to meats or poultry.
Once veggies are all sliced and mixed with dressing (can be prepared in advance), it takes about an hour to roast them in the oven.
Roasting doesn’t require much of attention, just stirring from time to time. So I consider this dish easy to prepare.
Ingredients:
- 1.5lb – 2lb of potato
- 1-2 bell pepper(s)
- 3 shallots
- 1 medium sized eggplant
- 4 garlic cloves
- 3 tbsp of olive oil
- 3 tbsp of white vinegar
- 1 tsp of dry basil leaves
- 1 tsp of dry oregano flakes
- Salt and ground black pepper to taste
How to prepare, step-by-step:
-
Prepare ingredients: as you can see on the pictures below, baking pan I used wasn’t big enough for amount ingredients I had — it was hard for me to stir vegetables in it. Stirring is easier to do if baking pan is bigger or/and its sides are higher than content for at least 1 inch — so adjust amount of ingredients if you have the same baking pan or use bigger one:

Potato roast with vegetables can be served alone as a no-meat main course or as a side for meat of poultry dish of your choice. This time I served them with a pork roast:

I just finished cooking it. I added brussel sprouts, not too many, just to give it a try. They actually came out ok, I wish I had used more dressing on them (i used apple cider vinegar as i didn't have the white one and it came out fine. During the last twenty minutes i noticed that they were getting dry so i covered it with aluminium foil and they all came out very soft... We all enjoyed the dish. I had some chicken nuggets and my son enjoyed them combined. Thank you for sharing with us these recipes. Very often I am in doubt what to cook and here is the healthy solution :-)
Healthy recipe and tasty at the same time.
Would it be ok if i was to use brussel sprouts or broccoli instead of eggplant (my son doesn't like it....).
I think brussel sprouts should be better than broccoli here, however they may get overcooked, maybe simply skip eggplants?
