Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 medium zucchini
- 1 small eggplant
- 1 medium red bell pepper
- 1 small yellow onion
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 cup feta cheese
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley
- 1 sheet puff pastry sheet
- 1 large egg
- 1 tablespoon milk
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Cut the zucchini, eggplant, red bell pepper, and onion into bite-sized pieces. Halve the cherry tomatoes.
In a large mixing bowl, toss the chopped vegetables with olive oil, dried oregano, ground black pepper, and salt until evenly coated.
Spread the seasoned vegetables on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Roast in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, stirring halfway through, until tender and slightly caramelized.
Remove the roasted vegetables from the oven and let them cool slightly. Stir in the crumbled feta cheese and chopped fresh parsley.
Roll out the puff pastry sheet on a lightly floured surface and transfer it to a pie dish or baking dish, pressing it gently into the corners and sides.
Fill the pastry shell with the roasted vegetable mixture, spreading it evenly.
In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and milk to make an egg wash. Brush the edges of the puff pastry with the egg wash for a golden finish.
Bake the pie in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown and crispy.
Remove the Mediterranean Vegetable Pie from the oven and let it cool for 5–10 minutes before slicing and serving.
