Grilled Zucchini Tunisian-Style (Vegan Friendly)
- Reviews 5
Ready In: 25 mins
Serves: 3-4
Ingredients
- 1⁄2 lb zucchini, approximately (1-inch thick slices and about 4-5-inch long)
- 2 -3 carrots (1/4-inch slices and about 4-5-inch long)
Marinade or Dressing
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 garlic clove
- 1⁄2 tablespoon harissa, to taste (see this super easy homemade version ( Easiest Moroccan Harissa or Hot Sauce)
- 1⁄4 teaspoon ground cumin or 1⁄4 teaspoon cumin seed
- 1⁄4 teaspoon caraway seed
- juice of half lemon
Garnish
- plain yogurt
- fresh cilantro (FRESH!) or fresh parsley (FRESH!)
- salt, to taste
- cracked black pepper, to taste
Directions
- Whisk together the marinade/dressing ingredients.
- Slice up the vegetables and place on a lined baking sheet or large pan in a single layer.
- Brush the marinade/dressing onto the slices of vegetables. Turn over and brush on the other side. If time allows, cover and let sit for 1 hour to allow flavors to intensify.
- Heat up a grill or stove top pan grill on medium heat.
- Place the vegetables on top and grill on each side until the vegetables have grill marks. The zucchini/squash will probably cook faster than the carrots. The zucchini shouldn't be too mushy but still firm.
- Transfer to a serving platter. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Garnish with the fresh cilantro or fresh parsley. Serve with a bowl of plain yogurt for garnish.
- Serve warm or at room temperature. Servings are estimated.
