MOROCCAN VEGGIE ROAST
Preheat the oven to 180°C. Place the onion chunks, drained lentils, and sliced green beans on a roasting tray. Coat in oil, half of the Morroccan Rub (to taste), and some seasoning. Roast in the hot oven for 20-25 minutes until the veggies are cooked through and the lentils are crispy.
GET THOSE SEEDS CRUNCHY!
Place the sunflower seeds in a pan over a medium heat. Toast for 2-4 minutes until lightly browned, shifting occasionally. Remove from the pan on completion and set aside to cool.
YOGHURT DRESSING & CARROT SLAW
In a bowl, combine the yoghurt with three-quarters of the chopped parsley. Season to taste and set aside for serving. Place the hummus in a bowl and mix in a drizzle of oil and 1 tsp of water. Toss through the grated carrot, season to taste, and set aside for serving.
PAN FRY THE BASA
When the veggies have 5 minutes remaining, return the pan to a medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil or knob of butter. Pat the basa dry with some paper towel and coat in the remaining Moroccan Rub to taste. When the pan is hot, fry the basa for 1-2 minutes per side until cooked through and golden. Remove the pan from the heat on completion.
TIME TO DINE!
Spread out a bed of rinsed baby spinach and load with the spicy green beans, lentils, and onions. Top with the carrot and hummus slaw and lay over the golden basa fillet. Finish off with drizzles of parsley yoghurt, a scattering of toasted sunflower seeds, and sprinkles of the remaining chopped parsley. Enjoy, Chef!
