  • 1 bag baby spinach leaves
  • 1 packet dill & parsley mayonnaise
  • 1 tsp vinegar (balsamic or white wine)
  • olive oil
  • 4 sweet potatoes
  • 2 carrots
  • 2 beetroots
  • 2 brown onions
  • 1 sachet garlic & herb seasoning
  • 2 packets haloumi
  • 1 packet walnuts
  • 2 honeys
  • 1 packet mixed sesame seeds
  • 1 bag baby spinach leaves
  • 1 packet dill & parsley mayonnaise
  • 2 tsp vinegar (balsamic or white wine)

Instructions

  1. • Preheat oven to 240°C/220°C fan-forced. Cut sweet potato, carrot and beetroot into bite-sized chunks.
    • Slice brown onion into thin wedges.
    • Place sweet potato, carrot and beetroot in a large microwave-safe bowl. Cover with a damp paper towel. Microwave veggies on high, 2 minutes.
    • Gently stir veggies, return paper towel to bowl and microwave veggies on high for a further 1 minute.
    • Drain, then place veggies and onion on a lined oven tray. Drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle with garlic & herb seasoning, season with salt and toss to coat.
    • Spread out evenly, then roast until golden and tender, 12-15 minutes.
    TIP: If your oven tray is crowded, divide veggies between two trays.
  2. • Meanwhile, cut haloumi into 1cm-thick slices. In a medium bowl, add haloumi and cover with water.
    • Roughly chop walnuts.
    • When the veggies have 5 minutes remaining, drain haloumi.
    • In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. Cook haloumi until golden brown, 1-2 minutes each side.
    • Reduce heat to medium. Add the honey and mixed sesame seeds and cook, turning haloumi, until fragrant and coated, 1 minute.
  3. • To the tray with the roasted veggies, add baby spinach leaves and a drizzle of the vinegar and olive oil.
    • Gently toss to combine.
  4. • Divide roast veggie toss between bowls.
    • Top with honey sesame haloumi.
    • Sprinkle with walnuts and top with a dollop dill & parsley mayonnaise to serve. Enjoy!
