Instructions
• Preheat oven to 240°C/220°C fan-forced. Boil the kettle. • Cut cauliflower into small florets. Slice leek into thick rounds. • Place cauliflower, peeled & chopped pumpkin, leek, Middle Eastern spice blend (see ingredients), a drizzle of olive oil and a pinch of salt and pepper on a lined oven tray. • Toss to combine, spread out evenly, then roast until tender, 20-25 minutes. • Remove from oven and set aside to cool slightly.
TIP: If your oven tray is crowded, divide between two trays.
• Meanwhile, heat a drizzle of olive oil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Toast pearl couscous, stirring occasionally, until golden, 1-2 minutes. • Half-fill saucepan with boiling water, then add a pinch of salt. Bring to the boil, then simmer, uncovered, until tender, 10-12 minutes. • Drain and return couscous to the pan with a drizzle of olive oil. Stir through the butter and vegetable stock powder.
• When the veggies have 5 minutes remaining, slice lemon into wedges. • Combine the honey, a generous drizzle of olive oil and a generous squeeze of lemon juice in a large bowl. • Add baby leaves, roasted veggies and the lemon dressing to the couscous. Toss to combine.
• Divide spiced cauliflower and pearl couscous salad between bowls. • Crumble feta (see ingredients) over salad and serve with any remaining lemon wedges. Enjoy!
