Grilled vegetables

Grilled vegetables, seasoned with olive oil and herbs and spices - a truly heavenly delight. You just need to figure out how to fry such a delicate product on charcoal, since vegetables burn quickly and immediately become not tasty at all. Therefore, they always need a little protection from the heat. For kebabs made from vegetables, any grill containers are well suited. Finely chopped vegetables can be wrapped in foil. It retains liquid and vegetables are well fried in their own juice, herbs and spices retain their aroma without burning. It doesn't matter if you are cooking vegetable kebabs or vegetables wrapped in foil, you should always add enough vegetable oil to protect the vegetables from burning and at the same time ensure a good browning.
