People often get the wrong impression about me... I don't JUST eat meat.
Yes, I'm opposed to salads... but that's because I don't enjoy the taste of most salad dressings... but the veggies (or "leaves" as I sometimes jokingly refer to them)... those I actually have no problem with.
In this recipe, we take Aubergine's slice them "relatively" thin, and grill them with some olive oil, salt & cumin.
The "veggie mix" is mostly spicy fried onion mixed into couscous, and julienned raw veg (beets and carrots in this case) and freshly minced garlic and some freshly chopped coriander.
Of course it's not really a braai unless there's meat as well... so a lekker rump steak cut into slices finishes off the filling.
Once the Aubergines are have been grilled, fill them with the mix, roll 'em up and chow down!
Couldn't be easier!!! \m/
P.S. I'm thinking next time I'll spread some pureed peppers before adding the mix and that might add an interesting contrast to the "dry" couscous (or I just need to learn to make couscous so that it's not dry... is that possible?) :P
Shoutout to @ilanisnapshots for some of the pics... the good ones ;-)... and for the original recipe before we bastardised it :-) #TeamSouthAfrica #Food #Share2Steem #SteemKitchen #FFF

hahaha... it's normally all gone by the time the pics hit the Internet... but you're welcome to join for the next one... I braai every day... so you won't have to wait very long ;-)
Yaaaaayyyy @braaiboy 😍 awesome! I'LL BE RIGHT BACK
You could add coconut oil or olive oil to your couscous veggie mix, but it looks fantastic as is. The whole thing looks great and I should not be seeing this while hungry!
hmmm... I love olive oil, so will definitely try that one... and the coconut oil trick sounds like it could be interesting too.... thanks for the tips.
Wow. This looks amazing! :D

Thanks for Joining in the Food Fight
Cheers
