Grilled summer veg a la Kelly
June 25
It's so easy to grill vegetables; they cook quickly, taste great and are very simple to prepare. Just drizzle a bit of olive oil on top, skewer them together and put them on the grill for 5-8 minutes. Don't over do it, if you're not sure if they're done, err on the side of caution as most veg still tastes great raw...if you get it right they should be al dente.
Another grill favourite of mine is to slice carrots (or use baby carrots) and place them on to a sheet of aluminium foil, add a dolop of butter, and some dill. Wrap it all up, into a little package (try to make it as flat as possible, no more than 2 carrots high) and put it on the grill for 10-15mins. When it's almost ready poke some holes in the top to let the steam out (so you don't burn yourself).
Both of these dishes go well with just about any meat...pork chops are a nice choice!
