Provençal Vegetable Tian

In Provence, "tian" refers to both the necessary container for its preparation and its contents. The container, a round dish about thirty centimeters in diameter with high edges, has a slightly hollow bottom. It seems that the word "tian" has the same linguistic origins as "tajine," its Moroccan cousin, and ultimately, the same use: slow cooking in the oven.

Instructions

  • 1.   Wash the vegetables and remove the stems.
  • 2.   Cut the zucchini, eggplant, onions, and tomatoes into thick slices.
  • 3.   Cut the peppers in half, flatten them, and cut them into 3-4 centimeter squares.
  • 4.   Place the vegetable slices in your dish, alternating them and packing them as tightly as possible (they will shrink during cooking).
  • 5.   Finely chop or crush the two garlic cloves and the basil, add the oil, season with salt and pepper, and pour the mixture over the vegetables.
  • 6.   Bake in a preheated oven at 180°C (350°F) for about 2 hours, basting with the cooking juices every 30 minutes.
