Ingredients

Preparation

Grilled vegetables still contain most of the nutritional value including all the vitimins and minerals.

• Start by slicing the zucchinis, lengthways into good thick pieces and quarter the bell peppers and aubergines removing the inside and throw away. Now brush the vegetables with the oil and start your grill.

• Set your grill to the direct grilling setting and place the vegetables on the grill plate. Cook the vegetables for 10 minutes remembering to apply oil at regular intervals during the cooking until the vegetables are tender and crisp.

• Once the grilled vegetables are finished place them on a platter and drizzle the remaining oil onto the grilled vegetables and add the herbs to finish off.

• To add an extra crunch to your grilled vegetables try adding breadcrumbs and chopped pistachios into a pan of oil with some garlic and cook until golden brown and crunchy. Then toss the crunchy topping over the grilled vegetables for that extra bite.

• 2 tablespoons of olive oil or sesame oil
