Steps:
- | Preparation | Place garlic in an aluminum pouch, season with salt and transfer to the grill to roast until tender. Using a silicone brush, brush peppers with oil and transfer to the grill. Grill until skins are charred. Transfer peppers to a large bowl and cover with plastic wrap. Let cool, then remove blackened skins. Set aside to drain. Skewer onion slices with a metal skewer and brush with oil, lightly season with salt and pepper and grill until tender. Set aside. Brush both sides of eggplant with oil, lightly season and grill until tender, about 1 minute on each side. Set aside. Repeat this process with tomato, zucchini and squash. Repeat with mushrooms, but grill for 2 minutes on each side. Set aside to cool. | Assembly | Line the bottom of a 6-inch springform pan with parchment paper. Starting with half of the eggplant, line the bottom of the pan with overlapping slices. Sprinkle with 2 Tbsp cheese. Using the same method, create the second layer with half of the red peppers, then half yellow peppers. Sprinkle with 2 Tbsp cheese. Assemble the third layer with half the onion, then half the zucchini, crisscrossed with the yellow squash, followed by half the tomatoes. Sprinkle with 4 Tbsp cheese. Arrange roasted garlic evenly over the layer. Then layer remaining onion and tomatoes with 4 Tbsp cheese and remaining zucchini, squash and red and yellow peppers with 4 Tbsp cheese. Layer remaining eggplant and arrange mushroom slices overlapping as the top layer. Cover with parchment paper and put a plate on top. Put a weight on the plate, such as an unopened can. Set on a rack over another plate with sides to drain. Refrigerate overnight. To serve, drain liquids, remove weight, plate and parchment paper, and invert on a cake plate. Remove the pan, sprinkle with cheese, arrange basil leaves on top and serve at room temperature.
Tips:
- Choose firm vegetables: Vegetables like zucchini, eggplant, and bell peppers hold their shape well when grilled and won't release too much water, making them ideal for a terrine.
- Marinate the vegetables: Marinating the vegetables in a flavorful mixture of olive oil, herbs, and spices before grilling adds extra flavor and moisture.
- Grill the vegetables until tender: Make sure to grill the vegetables until they are tender but still hold their shape. Overcooked vegetables will become mushy and won't hold together well in the terrine.
- Layer the vegetables carefully: When assembling the terrine, layer the vegetables in a pleasing arrangement. Alternate different colors and textures for a visually appealing dish.
- Press the terrine firmly: Once the vegetables are layered, press the terrine firmly with a weight to help it hold its shape. This will also help to remove any air pockets.
- Chill the terrine before slicing: Chilling the terrine before slicing will help it to firm up and make it easier to cut into neat slices.
Conclusion:
Grilled vegetable terrine is a versatile and delicious dish that can be served as an appetizer, main course, or side dish. It's a great way to enjoy fresh, seasonal vegetables and is perfect for a summer cookout or potluck. With its vibrant colors and flavors, grilled vegetable terrine is sure to impress your guests.
