BEGIN WITH BUTTERNUT
Preheat the oven to 200°C. Spread the butternut pieces on a roasting tray. Coat in oil and season. Roast in the hot oven until golden, 25-30 minutes (shifting halfway).
MIX THINGS UP
Boil the kettle. In a shallow bowl, combine the falafel mix, a pinch of salt, and 100ml of boiling water. Cover with a plate and set aside for at least 10 minutes.
ALL OF THE ALMONDS
Place the chopped almonds in a pan over a medium heat. Toast until golden brown, 2-4 minutes (shifting occasionally). Remove from the pan and set aside.
FRY THE FALAFEL
Roll the falafel mixture into 4-5 balls. Gently flatten to form mini patties. Return the pan to a medium heat with enough oil to cover the base. When hot, fry the falafel patties until crispy, 1-2 minutes per side. Remove from the pan and drain on paper towel. Cut the falafels in half.
IT’S SECOND TO NAAN
Place a clean pan over a medium heat. When hot, toast the naan until golden, 1-2 minutes per side. In a small bowl, loosen the red pepper hummus with a splash of water and season.
DINNER TIME!
Plate up the toasted naan bread, and smear over the hummus. Top with the roasted butternut & halved falafels. Scatter over the drained peppers and the chopped dates. Dollop over the tzatziki. Finish it off with a sprinkle of toasted almonds, and garnish with the sliced mint. Well done, Chef!
