Cooking Steps

Prepare
1
  • Preheat the oven to 220°C.
  • Rinse off the chickpeas in a sieve and pat them dry with kitchen paper.
  • Cut the sweet potato in half lengthways, then cut it into 0.5cm thick crescents.
  • Cut the onion into wedges, and use the side of the knife to squash the garlic.
Roast the chickpeas
2
  • Spread the chickpeas, sweet potato, onion and garlic over a parchment-lined baking sheet.
  • Toss with the Middle Eastern-style spices and a drizzle of olive oil. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Roast the vegetables for 20 - 22 minutes, tossing halfway through.
Toast the pumpkin seeds
3
  • Bring plenty of water to a boil in a pot or saucepan and crumble in the stock cube (see pantry for amount).
  • Boil the quinoa for 8 - 10 minutes, then drain and set aside.
  • Heat a frying pan without any oil over high heat. Toast the pumpkin seeds for 1 - 2 minutes, or until they start to pop, then remove from the pan and set aside.
Prepare the salad
4
  • Remove the radish leaves and cut the radishes into thin slices.
  • Cut the cherry tomatoes in half and cut the lemon into wedges.
  • In a salad bowl, mix the quinoa with the radish, cherry tomatoes, arugula, extra virgin olive oil and the juice of 1 lemon wedge per person. Season with salt and pepper to taste as preferred.

Did you know... radish leaves are edible, and they're full of calcium, iron, vitamin A and vitamin C! Simply rinse off the leaves, then mix them into a salad.

Prepare the dressing
5
  • Roughly chop the parsley and the mint leaves.
  • Peel and finely chop the roasted garlic.
  • In a small bowl, mix the coconut yogurt with the parsley, mint, garlic and the juice of 1 lemon wedge per person.
  • Season with salt and pepper as preferred.
Serve
6
  • Serve the salad on plates, followed by the chickpeas, sweet potato and onion (see Tip).
  • Garnish with the pumpkin seeds and the coconut yogurt-herb dressing.

Tip: serve any remaining lemon wedges to the side.
