Chunky roast veg topped with the most amazing peanut dressing and fresh herbs. The peanut dressing is totally addictive and amazing with tofu as well.

This is exactly the type of dish I love to make and eat–Simply some roast veg to enhance its natural flavour, then add layers of dressing and toppings to bring the veggies to life and create multiple textures and flavours.

And my peanut sauce is such a delicious addition to any roast veg (or crispy tofu) it’s already delicious, but then with the additional zingy herby dressing with lime–ooh so good!

Then top with some toasted sesame seed gomashio for crunch and then some cooling and freshly shaved cucumber–I love it, I hope you do too.

Much love, Niki xxx

    Loving your book which I am sharing with all my friends in Blackwood, Victoria; Australia. Last night made roast tomato soup with croutons and avocado – delicious – next will try the spiced potatoes and spinach.
