Grilled radiccchio with fontina

Ingredients

Ingredients
1 radicchio head, sliced through the core into wedges
2 tbsp olive oil , plus extra to serve
1 tbsp balsamic vinegar , plus extra to serve
2 tbsp thyme leaves
50g fontina, pecorino or parmesan, shaved or finely sliced

Directions

Heat grill to medium, around 160C. Lie the radicchio on a baking sheet and season. Whisk the oil and vinegar together, then drizzle over the radicchio. Grill for 5-8 mins, turning regularly – you want the veg to be softened and cooked through, but not too charred.

Serve on a large platter, topped with a scattering of thyme leaves and the fontina. Drizzle with a little more olive oil and balsamic vinegar, season, then serve.

Such an amazing project which results in amazing veg to feed us throughout the week ! It has also introduced us to veg we might otherwise not have tried and love them now. And it's all local and chemical free! Cannot recommend it enough :)
