  1. ROASTIN’ Butternut

    Preheat the oven to 200°C. Spread the Butternut on a roasting tray. Coat in oil, the NOMU rub and season. Roast in the hot oven until golden, 25-30 minutes (shifting halfway). Alternatively, air fry at 200°C until crispy, 20-25 minutes (shifting halfway).

  2. SEEDS & DRESSED BEANS

    Boil the kettle. Place the seeds in a pan over medium heat. Toast until golden brown, 3-4 minutes (shifting occasionally). Remove from the pan and set aside. Place the Kale in a bowl with a drizzle of olive oil and seasoning. Using your hands, massage until softened and coated. Add the beans, mix well, and set aside.

  3. GET THE RICE GOING

    Place the rice in a pot with 225ml [450ml]|#7DA0D7 of salted water. Cover with a lid and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer until the water has been absorbed, 25-30 minutes. Drain (if necessary) and cover.

  4. PEAS & TOMATOES

    In a salad bowl, combine the sweet Chilli sauce with 2 [3]|#7DA0D7 tsp of olive oil. Mix in the coconut sugar, the lemon juice (to taste), and the chilli (to taste). Toss through the tomatoes, season, and set aside to marinate. Submerge the peas in boiling water for 2-3 minutes until heated through. Drain and set aside.

  5. HALFWAY, HOORAY!

    When the Butternut reaches the halfway mark, remove from the oven and scatter over the beans, and return to the oven. In the final 6-8 minutes, add the kale and roast for the remaining time.

  6. ASSEMBLE THE RICE SALAD

    Place the rice and roasted veg into a large bowl and toss through the peas, the tomatoes, and the tomato marinade dressing (to taste).

  7. A COLOUR & FLAVOUR BURST!
