Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 18

2 red capsicum/bell peppers
2 yellow capsicum/bell peppers
2 red onions
1 eggplant (, halved lengthwise, then 1.25cm/ 0.5" thick semi circles)
2 zucchini (, 0.7cm / 1/3" thick slices on diagonal)
2 bunches asparagus (, ends trimmed)
200g/ 7oz button mushrooms
1/4 cup (65ml) extra virgin olive oil
1 tsp each salt and pepper
3 cloves garlic (, minced)
1/4 cup parsley (, roughly chopped (or chives))
1/3 cup (85ml) lemon juice
1/3 cup (85ml) extra virgin olive oil
2 tsp white sugar
2 garlic cloves (, minced)
1/2 tsp each salt and pepper
1/2 tsp each dried basil, parsley, oregano, thyme ((Note 2))
1/2 - 1 tsp chilli flakes ((adjust spice to taste, Note 3))

Steps:

  • Place ingredients in a jar and shake well. Set aside 10 minutes+.
  • Keep pieces large for easy handling on the BBQ (so you don't have to turn hundreds of pieces!) and so they don't fall through the grills.
  • Capsicum/bell peppers - cut the "walls" off, then cut each each on the diagonal into fairly large pieces.
  • Onion (Note 4) - keep the root end (hairy end!) in tact. Peel, cut in half, then cut into wedges through the root end.
  • Brush BBQ grills lightly with oil, then preheat to high. Or oven 250°C/480°F.
  • Place vegetables in a very large bowl or use a big tray. Drizzle with oil, sprinkle with salt, pepper and garlic. Toss with hands (there is no better way!).
  • Place on BBQ and cook until tender crisp with charred edges - cook times below. Then remove into large bowl.
  • Asparagus, zucchini - grill 2 min each side. (Oven - 10 min, no flipping)
  • Capsicum, mushroom, onion - grill 3 min each side (oven 15 min, flip at 10 min)
  • Eggplant - grill 4 min each side. Jab in middle to ensure soft but not soggy! (oven 18 min)
  • While vegetables are still hot, drizzle over Dressing and toss.
  • Set aside 10 minutes+ before serving, sprinkled with parsley. See in post for serving ideas.
