We used a mixture of cauliflower, cooked beetroot and red onion in our roasted vegetable salad, but you can customise this versatile recipe and roast up whatever veggies you have to hand. The secret to its success is the zingy dressing, which uses a few tablespoons of our easy make-ahead green sauce. Make a batch and pop in the freezer to turn into other speedy meals, such as this baked hake with green rice.

Ingredients

500-600g vegetables; we used a mixture of cauliflower, cooked beetroot and red onion but you can use anything that roasts nicely (carrots, butternut squash, celeriac, peppers, cherry tomatoes)
1 small preserved lemon
4 tbsp green sauce
Pinch ground cumin
Pinch ground coriander
90g rocket
1 spring onion, sliced
1 tbsp dukkah

Method

Heat the oven to 200ºC/gas mark 6. Chop the vegetables to roughly the same size, then toss with a dash of oil, salt and pepper. Place on an oven tray and roast for 20-30 minutes, depending on which vegetables you’re using. You want them to be tender when pieced with a knife but starting to colour and crisp up too.
To make the dressing, finely dice the preserved lemon (discarding seeds) and mix with 4 tbsp of green sauce and a pinch of both ground cumin and coriander. Taste and add salt if needed.
Transfer the vegetables to a bowl and dress with most of the dressing, then mix in the rocket too. Serve the salad with the sliced spring onion and dukkah sprinkled on top and drizzle with the remaining dressing.
