Kingly Foods

So what have I been up to for eight months? Not eating? Well kinda. I haven’t really cared for making anything fancy or nice looking. Sandwiches in the evening, porridge in the morning etc. But I got some inspiration out of the blu, and I will start out this new year with talking about how I broiled something for the first time!

So to be honest, I had no idea what broil was so I had to Wikipedia it. Turns out it’s just like grilling – cool! So I looked for some vegetables that would be delicious grilled and came up with: asparagus, carrots and cherry tomatoes.

So here is the pre broiling picture. I put them up neatly, not stacking anything, and drizzled with olive oil and sprinkled salt on top of that. Finished it off with plenty of thyme. Then I put it into the oven and broiled it for approximately 10-12 minutes.

For 10-12 minutes everything was pretty good. Texture wise the carrot probably needed another minute or two in the oven but I was a bit scared of burning it all too much since the thyme came out black! Other than that it was excellent! The asparagus was slightly crispy outer and savoury soft centre. Definitely great as the side salad on any hot dish :)
