Roast Squash, Fennel & Puy Lentils with Miso Tahini Dressing

May 2, 2020 / Niki / 6 Comments

Maybe not the most spring like for the start of May but its no doubt delicious. Super simple, a bed of earthy Puy lentils, sweet roasted squash and fennel and the most amazing miso tahini dressing. Which makes EVERYTHING taste good.


This is a perfect store cupboard dish, just wholesome lentils, add some roast veg (see swaps below) and a dressing made from things you will hopefully have in your cupboard.


I think its important to add some crunch so do top with some toasted seeds or dukkah.


Swaps;

Lentils – you can use mung beans, chickpeas or butter beans

Squash & fennel – sweet potato, carrots, parsnips, aubergine or peppers – they would all be delicious.

I’m also in the process of creating some beautiful green spring like dishes so watch this space.

I really hope you love this tasty salad, let me know if you make it id love to hear what you think.

Much love, Niki xxx

    Delicious, thank you. I made a weird substituted dukka for the top with walnuts, pumpkin seeds and black sesame but tasted great. We’ve made 2 recipes off your site so far, but they’ve already become staples, and my husband is a meat eater! Definitely getting your book, thanks x
