Grilled Zucchini Tunisian-style (vegan Friendly)

Total Time: 25 mins Preparation Time: 15 mins Cook Time: 10 mins

Ingredients

• Servings: 3
• 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)
• 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
• plain yogurt
• fresh cilantro (fresh!) or fresh parsley (fresh!)
• salt, to taste
• cracked black pepper, to taste

Recipe

• 1 whisk together the marinade/dressing ingredients.
• 2 slice up the vegetables and place on a lined baking sheet or large pan in a single layer.
• 3 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.
• 4 heat up a grill or stove top pan grill on medium heat.
• 5 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.
• 6 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.
• 7 serve warm or at room temperature. servings are estimated.
