Vegetarian Barbecue

Grilled veges get a boost of flavour in this barbecue vegetable medley with a tasty sauce that uses sour cream – and yes – it’s still healthy, and it’s vegetarian!

BBQ              

Instructions

Step 1 For sauce, process sour cream and tomatoes in a food
processor until well-combined. Place in a bowl. Cover and
refrigerate until needed.

Step 2 Heat barbecue hotplate to a medium heat. Spray both
sides of eggplant slices with oil. Cook for 2-3 minutes on each
side, or until golden and tender. Transfer to a large plate. Cover
to keep warm.

Step 3 Spray mushrooms, asparagus and capsicum with oil.
Cook mushrooms for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until tender
and golden. Transfer to a large plate. Cook asparagus and
capsicum for 2 minutes on each side, or until tender.

Step 4 Layer a slice of eggplant, mushroom, asparagus and
capsicum on 4 serving plates. Repeat another vegetable layer.
Top with a dollop of sauce. Sprinkle with chives. Serve
immediately.
