Made this recipe?
A simple, cooling yoghurt sauce with fresh mint and lemon. The perfect counterpoint to spiced meats.
Prepare the vegetables
In a large bowl, toss the courgette slices and red onion wedges with the olive oil, salt, and pepper until everything is lightly coated. Don't be afraid to use your hands to make sure the vegetables are evenly seasoned.
Grill the vegetables
Place the courgette slices and onion wedges directly on the hot grill. Cook for 5-7 minutes per side, until tender and nicely charred. You can move them to the cooler side of the grill if they start to catch too much colour before they are cooked through.
Serve
Remove the vegetables from the grill and serve immediately. They are best served warm, but are also delicious at room temperature.
