GET THE ROAST GOING
Preheat the oven to 200°C. Spread the halved baby carrots and the drained lentils on a roasting tray. Coat in oil, the cumin, the grated garlic, and seasoning. Roast in the hot oven until golden, 25-30 minutes (shifting halfway).
PISTACHIO MOMENT
Place the chopped Pistachios in a pan over medium heat. Toast until golden brown, 2-3 minutes (shifting occasionally). Remove from the pan and set aside.
THE TOAST OF THE TOWN
When the carrots and lentils have 5-7 minutes remaining, return the pan to medium heat. When hot, toast the pitas until heated through, 30-60 seconds per side. Alternatively, place them on a plate and heat up in the microwave, 30-60 seconds. When cool enough to handle, cut into quarters.
ALL TOGETHER NOW
In a salad bowl, combine the roasted carrots and lentils, the rinsed green leaves, the pomegranate gems, ½ the chopped mint, a generous drizzle of olive oil, and seasoning. Set aside. In a small bowl, loosen the tahini-mustard dressing with water in 5ml increments until a drizzling consistency. Add the lemon juice, a sweetener, and seasoning.
SALAD SPECIAL
Dish up the roasted carrot salad. Top with the crumbled feta and sprinkle over the toasted Pistachios. Drizzle over the tahini-mustard dressing and garnish with the remaining mint. Side with the pita quarters. Well done, Chef!
