Instructies
- 1.Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F). On a baking tray, toss the diced carrot and parsnip with 15ml of olive oil, salt, and pepper. Roast for 20-25 minutes, or until tender and lightly caramelized.
- 2.While the vegetables roast, rinse the Puy lentils and place them in a small saucepan. Cover with ample water, bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 20-25 minutes until tender but still holding their shape. Drain well.
- 3.In a small bowl, whisk together the remaining 30ml olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, and Dijon mustard to create the dressing. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
- 4.In a large serving bowl, combine the warm roasted vegetables, cooked lentils, finely sliced red onion, and fresh spinach. The residual heat will gently wilt the spinach.
- 5.Pour the dressing over the salad and toss gently to combine everything evenly.
- 6.Flake the cooked mackerel fillets into large pieces.
- 7.Divide the warm lentil and vegetable salad between two plates and top with the flaked mackerel to serve.
