GLAZED & HERBY VEG
Preheat the oven to 200°C. Spread the Beetroot on one side of a roasting tray. Coat in oil, the balsamic reduction, and season. Spread the Butternut on the other side of the tray. Coat in oil, the NOMU rub, and season. Roast in the hot oven until crispy, 30-35 minutes (shifting halfway). Alternatively, air fry at 200°C until crispy, 20-25 minutes (shifting halfway).
PEARLY Quinoa
Place the Quinoa in a pot with 150ml [300ml]|#7DA0D7 of salted water. Cover with a lid and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer until the tails have popped out, 12-15 minutes. Remove from the heat and drain (if necessary). Set aside to steam, about 5 minutes.
TOAST THE SEEDS
Place the sunflower seeds in a pan over medium heat. Toast until golden brown, 2-3 minutes (shifting occasionally). Remove from the pan and set aside.
CARAMELISED ONIONS
Return the pan to medium heat with a drizzle of oil and a knob of butter (optional). When hot, fry the Onion until caramelised, 8-10 minutes (shifting occasionally). At the halfway mark, add a sweetener (to taste). Season, remove from the pan, and stir through the cooked Quinoa.
HALFWAY
When the roast veg reaches halfway, shift the tray, scatter over the black beans, and return to the oven for the remaining roasting time.
LEAVES & Tahini DRESSING
In a salad bowl, toss the green leaves with a drizzle of olive oil and seasoning. In a small bowl, combine the Tahini and the honey with 1 [2]|#7DA0D7 tsp of olive oil and seasoning. Loosen with warm water in 5ml increments until drizzling consistency.
WHAT A TASTE BUD TREAT!
Dish up a heap of caramelised Onion Quinoa and top with the dressed green leaves. Pile on the colourful roast veg and beans, and sprinkle over the sunflower seeds. To finish off, dollop over the crème fraîche and generously drizzle with the tahini dressing. It’s supper time, Chef!
