- 1 large or two small sweet potatoes (~200 g)
- 1 head broccoli, torn, chopped into large bite size pieces
- 2 tbsp olive, grape seed or melted coconut oil
- Healthy pinch each salt and black pepper
- optional: 1 tsp dried dill or 2 tsp fresh dill
- optional: 1 thinly sliced red bell pepper (leave raw or roast with
broccoli)
- 1 (425 g) can chickpeas, drained, rinsed, thoroughly dried
- 1 tbsp olive or grape seed oil
- 1 tbsp tandoori masala spice*
- 1 tsp coconut sugar
- Healthy pinch sea salt
- optional: pinch cayenne pepper or red pepper flake
- 80 g hummus
- 3 large cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tsp dried or 2 tsp fresh dill
- 2 tbsp (30 ml) lemon juice
- Water to thin
1. Preheat oven to 190 C and line two baking sheets with parchment
paper (or grease lightly).
2. Add rinsed dried chickpeas to a mixing bowl and season with oil,
tandoori spice*, coconut sugar and salt. Toss to combine.
3. Add sweet potatoes and chickpeas to one sheet, and the broccoli to
another. Drizzle the vegetables with olive oil and sprinkle with
salt and pepper - toss to combine. Sprinkle with dill (optional),
then arrange in a single layer.
4. Bake both for a total of 20-25 minutes, rotating the pans once near
the halfway point. You can flip the sweet potatoes over to encourage
even baking, but it's not necessary. You'll know the broccoli is
done when it's golden brown, the sweet potatoes will be tender, and
the chickpeas will begin firming up and taking on a slight crunch.
Set aside.
5. While vegetables and chickpeas are baking, prepare dressing by
adding hummus, garlic, dill and lemon juice to a small mixing bowl
and whisking to combine. Then add only enough water to thin until
pourable. Set aside.
6. To serve, divide vegetables and chickpeas between two serving plates
and drizzle with dressing, or serve on the side.
7. Best when fresh, though leftovers keep stored separately for 2-3
days in the refrigerator. Enjoy leftovers slightly chilled or at
room temperature for best flavor/texture.
