Dukkah-roasted Vegie and Quinoa Salad Recipe



Ingredients
  • 750g butternut pumpkin, peeled, cut into 2.5cm pieces
  • 1 small red onion, cut into 8 wedges
  • 300g cauliflower, cut into small florets
  • 1/2 head broccoli, cut into small florets
  • Olive oil spray
  • 1 tbsp pistachio dukkah
  • 1/4 cup pepitas
  • 1 cup white quinoa
  • 1/4 cup chopped coriander, plus extra sprigs to serve
Dressing
  • 1/2 cup reduced-fat Greek yoghurt
  • 1 small garlic clove, crushed
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
Method
Step 1. Preheat oven to 190C or 170C fan. Line 2 baking trays with baking paper. Arrange pumpkin and onion on 1 tray and cauliflower and broccoli on other tray. Spray with oil and sprinkle with dukkah. Roast pumpkin and onion for 15 mins. Add cauliflower and broccoli and roast for a further 30 mins or until tender and lightly browned. Set aside to cool slightly.
Step 2. Meanwhile, combine yoghurt, garlic and lemon juice in a bowl. Season. Place pepitas on an oven tray and bake for 3 mins or until lightly toasted. Transfer to a plate. Set aside to cool.
Step 3. Place quinoa in a fine sieve and rinse under cold water. Bring a medium saucepan of water to the boil. Add quinoa and cook for 12 mins or until tender. Drain and cool slightly. Fluff with a fork to release steam.
Step 4. Combine the quinoa, vegetables, pepitas and chopped coriander in a large bowl. Top with coriander sprigs and serve with the dressing.
