We are going to roast the skewers in the oven, but they would be great on the BBQ, if you want to get outside.

 

Instructions

1

Heat your oven to 210 degrees Celsius.

Place a medium pot of lightly salted water on to boil.

2

Cut the top off the eggplant and dice into 2 to 3 cm cubes.

Cut the top off the courgette and cut in half lengthwise, then cut into 2 cm half-moons.

Cut the pepper in half, discard the stalk and core, then dice into chunks in similar size to the courgette and eggplant.

3

Cook the quinoa in boiling water for about 15 minutes, until soft and ‘sprouted.’ Once cooked, strain through a fine sieve and allow to cool.

4

Skewer the vegetables, (eggplant, courgette, pepper). Lay on a baking tray and season with salt, pepper and drizzle with oil. Roast for 12 to 14 minutes, flipping halfway.

5

Remove the core from the tomatoes dice into rough 1 cm cubes.

Remove the end of the witlof and thinly slice.

Combine witlof with the tomato, and pickled red onion, a pinch of salt and splash of olive oil.

6

Remove the mint leaves from the stalk and roughly chop.

Mix with the cooked quinoa, add lemon juice, a splash of olive oil and a pinch of salt.

7

Serve the hummus, quinoa tabouli and salad topped with skewers, then drizzle with yoghurt dressing.
