ROAST THOSE ROOTS!
Preheat the oven to 200°C. Spread out the pumpkin and beetroot pieces on a roasting tray. Coat in oil, the cinnamon (to taste), and seasoning. Roast in the hot oven for 30-35 minutes until cooked through and crisping up, shifting halfway.
BABY & CHICKS
While the veg are roasting, drain and rinse the Chickpeas. Rinse, trim, and cut the baby marrow into chunks. Place the rinsed chickpeas and the baby marrow chunks in a bowl. Coat in oil and seasoning. Set aside.
LOAD THAT ROAST
When the roast has 15-20 minutes remaining, scatter the dressed Chickpeas & baby marrow over the tray and roast for the remaining time.
BEYOND THE Kale OF DUTY
Rinse the Kale and roughly shred. Place the shredded kale in a bowl with a drizzle of oil and seasoning. Using your hands, gently massage until softened and coated.
THE FINAL COUNTDOWN
When the roast has 8-10 minutes remaining, scatter the massaged Kale over the tray. Roast for the remaining time until crispy. In the final 3-5 minutes, scatter the chopped pecans over the roast.
CREAMY Tahini
In a small bowl, combine the coconut yoghurt, the Tahini (to taste), the lemon juice (to taste), 5ml of a sweetener of choice, and seasoning. Loosen with water in 5ml increments until a drizzling consistency.
COME AND GET IT!
Make a bed of the crispy Kale. Top with the roasted veg and drizzle over the creamy dressing. Scatter over the chopped apricots and garnish with a sprinkle of chopped mint. Splendid, Chef!
