GRILLED VEGETARIAN PANINIS

Here is a recipe, which my sis-in-law used to do in US.
Sorry I do not have a panini maker.


GRILLED VEGETARIAN PANINIS


INGREDIENTS:
Balsamic vinaigrette
1 long eggplant, sliced lengthwise into 1/4″ strips
1 zucchini, sliced lengthwise into 1/4″ strips
1 yellow onion, sliced into 1/4″ rings
Extra-virgin olive oil
4 slices of bread
Hummus
2 roasted red peppers
4 slices cheese
Salt and pepper


DIRECTIONS:
Place eggplant and zucchini in a plastic bag with enough balsamic vinaigrette to coat the vegetables. Seal and marinate in the refrigerator for 1 hour.
Preheat panini grill to medium-high heat (375 degrees). Brush olive oil on both sides of onions, season with salt and pepper and place on the grill. Remove eggplant and zucchini from marinade (discard remaining marinade) and place onto the grill as well. Close the lid and grill vegetables for 3-4 minutes until cooked through.
Brush olive oil onto the outer sides of each slice of the bread. On the bottom bread slices (oil side down), spread a layer of hummus. Top with slices of zucchini, eggplant, red pepper, onion, cheese and top bread slice (oil side up).
Grill 3-4 minutes until cheese is melted and golden grill marks appear. Serve immediately and enjoy!

toasted paninis are nothing, but sandwiches.
You can use any filling as you like.
You use the gadget to make the paninis.
Its like our sandwich maker.
You can even use the sandwich maker to make
the paninis. Or if you do not have one,
Use your pan, put the sandwich in the greased pan.
Put a pot cover or something over the sandwich.
Now put a heavy object over the cover.
Grill till the bottom browns.
Then turn the sandwich over and do it again.
Ah, you can use our simple dosai kal
