- Place vegetables in a large, heavy–duty plastic bag. To make marinade, place all ingredients in a screw–top jar and shake well to combine.
- Pour marinade over vegetables and seal top of bag. Store in refrigerator 8 hours or overnight, turning the bag occasionally to ensure vegetables absorb the maximum flavours from the marinade.
- Use a slotted spoon to transfer the vegetables to a serving bowl. Serve at room temperature.
