Mixed vegetables confit

Mixed confit vegetables are delicious and can accompany any type of dish, from meat to fish through cheese and eggs.

Confit mixed vegetables are nothing more than vegetables, in this case aubergines, courgettes and tomatoes, cooked according to the confit method, known above all for tomatoes.

This term comes from the French language and means "candied" . In practice, this method consists in drying the vegetables in the oven, caramelizing them with sugar, salt, oil, garlic and dry spices such as oregano or thyme. These vegetables are ideal to prepare in the summer, when we can find the best vegetables throughout the year.
