Grilled Vegetables Italian Style

100g pumpkin
One zucchini
One aubergine
One large red pepper
Four sticks of green asparagus
Olive oil
One clove of thinly cut garlic
Two tablespoons of chopped italian parsley
Two sticks of thyme
Half a cup of extra virgin olive oil
Salt, pepper

For four persons - flexibility possible of course. Take seeds out of pumpkin, cut into 7mm strips, cut zucchini 7mm strips, aubergine 1cm, cut pepper into four and take out seeds etc, peel tough part of asparagus bottom. Sprinkle salt over the aubergine, pepper, zucchini and after a while when the water has come out dry. Sprinkle with salt, pepper, olive oil and place on a strongly heated grill. Once coloured from grill, turn 90 degrees and repeat to get square pattern. Put garlic, italian parsley, thyme, extra virgin olive oil in a bowl and mix together (probably do this first?!), then put half on a dish, cover with vegetables and then cover with other half. Leave for an hour.
