What you need

  • 6 parsnips, peeled & cut into wedges
  • 6 carrots, cut into wedges
  • 3 tsp cumin seeds
  • 400g can chickpeas, drained
  • 4 Tbsp olive oil
  • 6-8 whole baby beetroots, trimmed 
  • 2 Tbsp runny honey
  • 200g pot garlic hummus
  • Juice of 1 lemon
  • Small bunch basil, leaves picked
  • 200g block Mainland Feta
  • Sea salt & pepper

Here's how it's done

  1. Heat oven to 180˚C fanbake. In a medium ovenproof pan toss the parsnips, carrots, 2 teaspoons cumin seeds and chickpeas with 3 tablespoons oil and some seasoning. 
  2. To avoid staining the vegetables with beetroot juice, place the beetroots in a separate ovenproof pan. Drizzle over a tablespoon of olive oil combined with the honey, and sprinkle over a teaspoon of cumin seeds. Season to taste. 
  3. Cook the vegetables for 30 minutes, tossing halfway through. 
  4. To serve, spread the hummus thinly over a large platter, or divide between 4 plates. Place the roasted vegetables on top of the hummus and squeeze over the lemon juice. Scatter over the basil and feta, and drizzle with any juices from the pan.
