What is nice about this recipe is that you can treat everything as inspiration: you can replace or remove any ingredient (except the bamboo skewers themselves) according to your taste and what you have at home.

Wash the peppers, and cut them into 2 * 2 cm cubes.

Peel the carrots, the red onions and the sweet potato, cut them into cubes of similar size.

The zucchini can be washed and cut into one centimeter-wide slices or into cubes similar to other vegetables.

Thoroughly wash the cherry tomatoes, do not cut them.

The mushrooms are ready (unless you have huge mushrooms, then you can cut them).

If you want to add tofu or salmon- cut them into 2*2*2 cm cubes. Than add them to the vegetables for the following steps (soaking, skewering and roasting).

In a flat dish - simply mix all the ingredients of the marinade:

Olive oil, sesame oil, soy sauce, date syrup (2-3 spoons of each), , 2-3 crushed garlic cloves, some salt and lemon, and as much as you want from your favorite herbs.

That's all.

You can subtract or add ingredients according to personal taste and mood.

Mix the vegetables well with the sauce. It is most convenient to mix with your hands and keep the vegetables whole and beautiful. And then wait, for about an hour.

Skewer the soaked vegetables on the bamboo skewers :-).

Preheat the oven to 200 degrees Celsius (390F).

Put baking paper on a flat baking sheet and arrange the skewers side by side. Put the baking sheet in the oven for 30-40 minutes.
