Cook Zero-Oil Grilled Vegetables with Za’atar & Lemon, and you’ll understand how to get strong, crave-worthy flavour without using oil. The aromatic za’atar, a combination of thyme, sesame, and sumac, is a staple in Mediterranean and Middle Eastern cuisines and the inspiration for this meal. The vegetables can be caramelised in the oven or on the grill without using any fat, thanks to their natural moisture and the bright, tangy kick of lemon juice. In particular, this zero-oil cooking recipe stands out for its tender, juicy, and fragrant veggies that are subtly charred. The addition of za’atar and fresh herbs enhances the flavour in every mouthful. This vegan, gluten-free, antioxidant-packed dish is great for clean eating, a weight loss diet, or simply adding variety and nutrients to your meals. Enjoy it warm or at room temperature as a salad, side dish or snack; no guilt, just deliciousness!
