Upute za pripremu
- 1.Preheat your oven to 200°C. On a baking tray, toss the chopped carrots and parsnips with half the olive oil, the dried rosemary, salt, and pepper. Roast for 25-30 minutes until tender and slightly caramelized.
- 2.While the vegetables roast, place the rinsed lentils in a saucepan with 500ml of water. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 20-25 minutes until tender but not mushy. Drain any excess water.
- 3.Heat the remaining olive oil in a frying pan over medium-high heat. Add the chopped onion and cook for 2-3 minutes until softened. Add the minced garlic and cubed lamb, season with salt and pepper, and cook for 5-7 minutes until the lamb is fully cooked through.
- 4.To make the dressing, whisk the tahini, lemon juice, and water together in a small bowl until you have a smooth, creamy consistency. Season with a pinch of salt.
- 5.In a large bowl, combine the hot roasted vegetables, cooked lentils, and the lamb with onion. Add the fresh baby spinach and toss; the residual heat will gently wilt the leaves.
- 6.Drizzle the lemon-tahini dressing over the salad, sprinkle with fresh mint, and toss gently to combine everything. Serve warm.
