  • 4 big handfuls of fresh rocket, washed
  • 1 tin organic lentils, rinsed and drained
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • Sea salt and pepper

Tahini Drizzle:

  • 2 tbsp tahini paste

  • Handful of fresh chopped herbs (I love parsley and mint)

 

Method

  1. Preheat oven to 180°C.
  2. Add chopped sweet potato to a lined baking tray and drizzle with olive oil. Season generously with salt and pepper, sprinkle with cinnamon, then add tray to oven for 30-35 minutes, or until sweet potato is golden and cooked through.
  3. Meanwhile, make the tahini drizzle by adding all drizzle ingredients to a bowl and whisking until smooth. Season with salt and pepper.
  4. Arrange rocket on a serving plate or wooden board then add roasted sweet potato. Spoon over lentils and tahini drizzle. Top with chopped pecans and dried cranberries.
