Ingredients: | Vegetables:

Preparation: | Cut fennel in half lengthwise.
Cut baby bok choy in half lengthwise. Cut small eggplants in half lengthwise. Cut red onions into 4-6 wedges each. Cut red chili peppers in half lengthwise. Trim asparagus. Cut mushrooms in half. Leave garlic whole, finely chop or crush as you desire. Place prepared vegetables in a shallow dish. In a bowl, combine oil and garlic then toss through vegetables until well coated. Preheat a grill pan or barbecue or oven broiler. Working in batches, grill vegetables until golden, 1-2 minutes each side. Remove from grill, place into serving bowls and drizzle with warm ginger dressing. Serve immediately. Warm ginger dressing: Place oils, ginger, lime juice and mirin into a small saucepan. Whisk over low heat until just warm, about 1 minute, and serve. |
