Roasted vegetable salad
"Mashveij is an exotic vegetable salad derived from Jewish-Tunisian cuisine. When I tried it for the first time, I was immediately enamored with it. The preparation is quite simple. The vegetables are grilled outside or in the oven using the grill function. No worries if they blacken a bit because that adds a welcome smoky taste.Then the vegetables are peeled, minced and seasoned. That's all there is to it - and the result is stunning, as the vegetables are dressed while they are still warm, giving the intense smoky aromas a chance to fully develop.. I like to prepare large amounts which I cover with olive oil (just like pesto) and leave it in the fridge for several days, as it gets even better if you let it rest. Mashveij goes well with sandwiches, roasted chicken breasts, fish or pasta (by briefly heating the Mashveij together with a few diced tomatoes and a dash of sweet cream)."
