Notes

Tip: If using wooden skewers be sure to soak them for at least 20 minutes to prevent flare ups on the barbecue.

Oven roasting method: Place skewers on parchment paper lined baking sheet and roast in 200°C (400°F) oven for about 20 minutes or until golden and tender crisp.

If you don’t want to use skewers simply spread the vegetables onto parchment and roast for the same amount of time.
