## Tips

- The secret is to massage every vegetable by hand in a lado lemono (olive oil, lemon, garlic, and oregano) and let it rest for at least 20 minutes before baking to allow the flavors to penetrate the vegetables.
- Don't pull the briam out of the oven too early; the char on the edges is where all the flavor is.
- Adding a slab of feta on top after baking creates a melty, golden contrast.
- Toasted walnuts can be added for extra crunch and Mediterranean nutrition.
