Peloponnese home cook Maria Xerakia gave us this recipe for roasted summer vegetables, which pairs well with roasted lamb.

  • 12 cup extra-virgin olive oil
  • 2 medium Yukon Gold potatoes, cut crosswise into 1⁄4" slices
  • Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • 34 cup canned crushed tomatoes
  • 4 sprigs fresh oregano
  • 4 cloves garlic, roughly chopped
  • 2 small eggplants, cut crosswise into 1⁄2" pieces
  • 2 small zucchini, cut crosswise into 1⁄2" pieces
  • 1 medium white onion, cut into eighths
