Number Of Ingredients 17

2 tablespoon Olive Oil
1/2 wedges Red Onion
2 Sweet Potato - Halved
1 bunch Broccolini (steammed removed, chopped) 225g
2 handful Kale
1 dash Pepper & Salt
1 can Chickpeas - drained and patted dry
1 teaspoon Cumin
3/4 teaspoon Chili Powder
3/4 teaspoon Garlic Powder
1/4 teaspoon Salt & Pepper
1/2 teaspoon Oregano (optional)
1/4 teaspoon Tumeric (optional)
1/4 cup Tahini
1 tablespoon Maple Syrup
1/2 Lemon Juice
3 tablespoon Hot water

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (204 C) and arrange sweet potatoes and onions on a bare baking sheet. Drizzle both with a bit of oil, making sure the flesh of the sweet potatoes are well coated and placed skin side down on the sheet.
  • Bake for 10 minutes, then remove from oven flip sweet potatoes and add broccolini. Drizzle broccolini with a bit of oil and season with a pinch each salt and pepper.
  • Bake for another 8-10 minutes, then remove from oven and add kale. Drizzle kale with a touch more oil and season with a pinch each salt and pepper. Bake for another 4-5 minutes then set aside.
  • While vegetables are roasting, heat a large skillet over medium heat and add chickpeas to a mixing bowl and toss with seasonings.
  • Once hot, add 1 Tbsp oil and chickpeas and sauté, stirring frequently. If they're browning too quickly, turn down heat. If there isn't much browning going on, increase heat. I found 10 minutes total at slightly over medium heat was perfect.
  • nce the chickpeas are browned and fragrant, remove from heat and set aside.
  • Prepare sauce by adding tahini, maple syrup and lemon juice to a mixing bowl and whisking to combine. Add hot water until a pourable sauce is formed. Set aside.
  • To serve: Slice sweet potatoes into bite size pieces. Divide vegetables between 3 serving bowls and top with chickpeas + tahini sauce.
  • Best when fresh, though leftovers will keep for a few days in the fridge.
