Master Vegetable Marinade

This master vegetable marinade is a versatile staple that belongs in every home cook's repertoire. By balancing the richness of extra-virgin olive oil with the sharp acidity of sherry or red wine vinegar, it creates a bright, savoury profile that enhances rather than masks the natural flavour of seasonal produce. The addition of a little honey provides just enough sweetness to encourage beautiful caramelisation during roasting or grilling.

Whether you are preparing a tray of Mediterranean roasted vegetables, skewered kebabs for a summer barbecue, or simply looking to add depth to a tray-bake, this vegan-friendly dressing is the perfect solution. It is incredibly quick to whisk together and works brilliantly on everything from earthy root vegetables and sweet peppers to tender aubergines and courgettes.
