Preparation
- Light the charcoal in the Big Green Egg and heat it with the convEGGtor and the Stainless Steel Grid to 200 °C.
- Prepare an oven dish of approximately 20 x 30 centimetres.
- Place pieces of kitchen string crosswise underneath the baking paper so the vegetable parcel can later be tied securely.
- Line the dish generously with baking paper: the paper should be large enough to completely cover the vegetables later on.
- Halve the pointed peppers lengthwise, remove the stems and seeds, and cut the flesh into strips.
- Remove the stems from the chestnut mushrooms and halve the caps.
- Cut the pomodori tomatoes and onions into coarse pieces.
- Peel the neck of the butternut squash and cut it into cubes of approximately 2 centimetres.
- Trim the tough ends from the green asparagus and cut the asparagus into pieces of about 7 centimetres.
- Peel the garlic and slice it thinly.
- Peel the sweet potato, cut it into quarters and then into slices of approximately 1 centimetre.
- Divide the cauliflower into florets. Spread all the vegetables across the baking-paper-lined oven dish.
- Drizzle with olive oil, season generously with pepper and salt, and mix everything well together.
- Fold the baking paper over the vegetables, but do not seal the parcel completely airtight.
- Tie the vegetable parcel closed with the kitchen string.
- Place the dish on the grid, close the lid of the Big Green Egg and cook the vegetables for about 20 minutes.
- Then remove the dish from the EGG, cut or loosen the kitchen string and unfold the baking paper.
- Insert the thyme and rosemary sprigs between the vegetables and distribute the mini mozzarella balls over the top.
- Return the dish to the grid and roast the vegetables for another 25 minutes, until tender with a slight bite and the mozzarella has become beautifully soft.
- Remove the dish from the Big Green Egg and place it on a heatproof surface on the table.
