Briam is a Greek oven-baked vegetable dish, commonly made with potatoes, courgettes, aubergine, tomatoes and onion, all cooked with olive oil and herbs. The vegetables are sliced and baked until tender, often letting their juices mingle in the pan.
In Greece, it is served warm or at room temperature, either as a main with bread or alongside other dishes. Its flavour is mellow and savoury, with softened vegetables and fragrant olive oil. It is mostly vegetables, with some fibre; a 100 g portion has 88 calories. For a more filling meal, serve it with beans or crusty bread, or use a lighter hand with the oil if you prefer a less rich result.

Briam is a Greek baked vegetable dish, usually made with potatoes, zucchini, eggplant, tomatoes, and plenty of olive oil. The vegetables roast together until tender, making it a rustic one-pan meal rather than a salad or stew.
To make Briam, slice vegetables, toss them with olive oil, tomatoes, and seasonings, then bake until tender and lightly browned. Cut the vegetables to a similar thickness and spread them in a broad baking dish so they roast evenly.
Briam commonly includes potatoes, zucchini, eggplant, tomatoes, and onions. Recipes may add peppers or other seasonal vegetables, but potatoes and olive oil are especially characteristic of many traditional versions.
No. Briam is a Greek olive-oil-baked vegetable dish, while ratatouille is a French dish with its own regional methods and seasoning. Their vegetables can overlap, but potatoes are more typical in Briam.
Briam comes from Greece and belongs to the tradition of cooking seasonal vegetables with olive oil. Versions vary across households and regions, so there is no single fixed combination of vegetables or seasoning.
Serve Briam with crusty bread, rice, or another simple grain to make a more substantial meal. It also pairs well with feta or olives; bread is particularly useful for soaking up the olive-oil-rich juices.
Yes, you can make Briam without potatoes, although potatoes are common in traditional recipes. Use extra zucchini, eggplant, or peppers, and check the dish earlier because the remaining vegetables may soften faster.
Briam can turn watery when vegetables release lots of moisture or the baking dish is crowded. Give the vegetables room, avoid cutting them too thin, and finish baking uncovered so excess liquid can evaporate.
Cool leftover Briam and keep it covered in the refrigerator for a few days. Reheat only the portion you plan to eat, either in the oven or on the stovetop, to avoid repeatedly warming the whole dish.
Yes, Briam can be eaten cold or at room temperature. Letting it rest allows the roasted vegetables to absorb the olive oil and seasonings, so it works well as a make-ahead dish as well as a warm dinner.
