NUTTY BASMATI
Preheat the oven to 180°C. Rinse the rice and place in a pot with the vegetable stock and 200ml of salted water. Stir through, pop on a lid, and bring to the boil over a high heat. Once boiling, reduce the heat and simmer for 15-20 minutes until most of the water has been absorbed. Keeping the lid on, remove from the heat and set aside to steam for 10 minutes until cooked and tender.
ROAST THE CAULI & LENTILS
Spread out the cauliflower pieces, drained lentils, and chopped dates on a roasting tray. Coat in oil, some seasoning, and the Moroccan Rub to taste. Roast in the hot oven for 20-25 minutes until the cauliflower is cooked through and starting to crisp, shifting halfway.
HUMMUS DRESSING & PEAS
Boil the kettle. Place the hummus in a bowl and combine with a drizzle of oil and three-quarters of the chopped parsley. Add water in 5ml increments until drizzling consistency. Season to taste and set aside for serving. Submerge the peas in boiling water for 2-3 minutes until heated through. Drain on completion. When the rice is cooked, stir through the warm peas.
SEAR THE TROUT
When the roast has 5 minutes to go, place a pan over a medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. Pat the trout dry with some paper towel. When the pan is hot, fry the trout skin-side down for 2-3 minutes until the skin is crispy. Flip and fry for a further 30-60 seconds or until cooked to your preference. Remove from the pan on completion.
