BBQ Courgettes

Ingredients

  • 500g of labneh or Greek yoghurt
  • two lemons (juice and zest one)
  • four tablespoons olive oil
  • four cloves garlic
  • two thinly sliced red chilies
  • a handful oregano leaves
  • 2 courgettes
  • 2 yellow courgette in diagonal slices
  • 50 gram oats
  • hazelnuts
  • sunflower seeds
  • pumpkin seeds
  • sesame seeds
  • smoked paprika
  • cumin seeds
  • egg white

Directions

  1. Preheat your oven to 180C/fan 160C/gas 4. Then, combine all the granola ingredients into a large bowl with a generous pinch of salt and mix thoroughly.
  2. Carefully spoon the mixture onto a large baking tray, spreading it out evenly. Roast for 10 minutes and then stir well before roasting again for an additional 10 minutes until all of the nuts and seeds have reached a golden hue.
  3. Mix together the labneh or yogurt, a generous dose of lemon zest and juice, and season with salt and pepper. Refrigerate until served.
  4. Heat a small pan with olive oil, garlic, and chili over medium heat for 4-5 minutes until the garlic turns toasty. Once finished, add oregano before seasoning the mixture. Finally, top off by sprinkling in some lemon zest and juice then take off from the stove. Your flavorful creation is all set!
  5. Heat up a large griddle pan, frying pan or barbecue until it’s hot. Generously season the courgette slices with oil and plenty of spices. Grill them for 3-4 minutes per side (in batches if necessary) until they are slightly charred on both sides.
  6. Create an inviting masterpiece by layering the labneh or yogurt across a large platter. Then, assemble towering mounds of courgettes in the center and generously sprinkle with savory granola.
  7. To complete this gastronomical delight, drizzle it with warm dressing then add oregano leaves for more flavor along with slices of garlic and chili to give a zesty kick!
