Tips
To achieve perfectly grilled vegetables, start by selecting fresh, firm, and vibrant-coloured vegetables, as this will ensure the best flavours and textures. When preparing to grill, make sure the grill or griddle pan is hot enough to create a beautiful sear and prevent sticking. Evenly coat the vegetables with oil to ensure consistent cooking and avoid burning. Grill them just long enough to achieve a slightly charred exterior and tender interior. To determine if they are done, check for softened texture and slightly darkened grill marks. Ideally, they should still retain some crispness without feeling or tasting raw.
