#  Harissa-Roasted Roots With Feta, Almonds &amp; Chickpeas  


This is a simple but flavourful meal that packs a serious punch thanks to the harissa – a chilli paste flavoured with garlic, spices and often rose petals, too. Don't worry about it making it from scratch, though. Store-bought rose harissa is what makes this recipe so easy.

Ingredients

    ½ celeriac, chopped into 5cm pieces  

   1 large sweet potato, chopped into 5cm pieces  

   8 new potatoes, chopped into 5cm pieces  

   2 carrots, chopped into 5cm pieces  

   2 parsnips, chopped into 5cm pieces  

   3 medium red onions, peeled &amp; quartered  

   1 whole bulb of garlic, peeled  

   4 tbsp of olive oil  

   1 preserved lemon, finely chopped  

   1 tbsp of preserved lemon brine, from the jar  

   4 tbsp of rose harissa paste  

   1 × 400g tin of chickpeas, drained (or 240g of cooked chickpeas)  

   1 × 80g bag of rocket, spinach and watercress  

   200g of feta cheese, crumbled  

   15g of mint, roughly chopped  

   15g of flat-leaf parsley, roughly chopped  

   75g of toasted flaked almonds  

   Salt &amp; freshly ground black pepper  

 



  

 



Method

 Step 1 

Heat the oven to 200°C/400°F/gas mark 6.



 Step 2 

Arrange the root vegetables, onions and garlic on a large oven tray in a single layer. Drizzle with half of the olive oil and season with a small amount of salt and pepper. Toss to coat the vegetables evenly in a thin layer of oil and seasoning and roast in the oven for 35 minutes.



 Step 3 

In a large bowl, mix the remaining olive oil with the preserved lemon and brine, harissa and chickpeas.



 Step 4 

Remove the oven tray from the oven and add the harissa-chickpea mixture. Toss again, to coat all the vegetables, and return to the oven for a further 35-40 minutes until the vegetables are tender and beginning to char.



 Step 5 

To serve, divide the rocket, spinach and watercress salad between 4 plates, then top  
 each with an equal amount of the roasted roots, feta, mint, parsley and almonds. Finally, drizzle over any oil left over in the roasting tray. Eat immediately.
