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.

There is nothing quite like holding fruit and veg that fizz with life after they’ve been harvested and hold on to that energy for days after. It brings us joy to work with such ingredients, that we know is grown with such love and care.
