Ingredients
- 3 yellow peppers, seeded and thickly sliced
- 3 baby marrows, sliced lengthwise
- 2 eggplants, sliced lengthwise
- 12 cherry tomatoes
- 250g asparagus, trimmed
- 5 leeks, sliced
- 60ml plus 2 tbsps olive oil
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 3 tbsps balsamic vinegar
- 2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
- 2 tsps mixed fresh herbs
Method
Step 1
Place a grill pan over medium-high heat or prepare the braai (medium-high heat).
Step 2
Brush the vegetables with 60ml of olive oil to coat lightly. Sprinkle the vegetables with salt and pepper.
Step 3
Grill the vegetables until tender and lightly charred all over, about 8 to 10 minutes.
Step 4
The key to getting those great grill marks is to not shift the vegetables too frequently once they’ve been placed on the hot grill.
Step 5
Meanwhile, whisk the remaining olive oil, balsamic vinegar, garlic and mixed herbs in a small bowl to blend. Add salt and pepper to taste.
Step 6
Drizzle the herb mixture over the vegetables. Serve the vegetables, warm or at room temperature.
