Instructions

1. Preheat the oven

   Time: PT5M

   Temperature: 200°C

2. Prepare the vegetables

   Wash the eggplants, zucchinis and bell peppers. Cut them into strips about 1 cm thick, not too thin to avoid turning them into chips.

   Time: PT10M

3. Season the vegetables

   Lay the strips on the baking sheet, drizzle with 3 tablespoons of olive oil, lightly salt and toss with your hands or a spatula to coat each piece well.

   Time: PT5M

4. Roast the vegetables

   Put the sheet in the oven and cook for 20‑25 minutes, then watch the last 5 minutes for a light grilled color. If you like more crunch, turn on the broiler for 2‑3 minutes while watching closely.

   Time: PT30M

   Temperature: 200°C

5. Prepare the dressing

   In a bowl, combine the half red onion, the crushed garlic, parsley, cilantro, cumin, vinegar, lemon juice, the remaining olive oil (2 c. à s.) and a pinch of pepper. Mix until a light emulsion forms.

   Time: PT5M

6. Assemble the salad

   Once the vegetables are out of the oven, let them cool slightly, then transfer them to the bowl with the dressing. Toss gently to coat each piece well.

   Time: PT5M

7. Serve

   Place the salad on a serving dish. It can be enjoyed warm or at room temperature, alongside a grill, steak or simply on its own.

   Time: PT5M
