Grilled Veggie Salad

Pulled this off from TV yesterday.

Aubergine (aka eggplant)
courgette (aka zuchini)
fennel root
asparagus
many peppers, red, yellow, orange. Whatever you can find.
little squashes
possibly mushrooms?

Slice all these things into relatively thin slices, unless they're too small. Grill on the barbecue. Only the peppers are slightly tricky- for them, just grill until black all over, and then pull skin off with hands before tearing apart and de-seeding.

While all this is still hot, sprinkle with as much garlic as you like, chopped up finely, and then dress with salt, pepper, and great glugs of top quality olive oil. Finish with some red wine vinegar, and toss while the last tendrils of warmth leave the salad.

I'm looking forward to this with a grilled flank steak.
