Carrot, Lentil, and Arugula Salad with Miso Brown Rice and Walnuts

carrots

red onion

tbsp olive oil coconut oil

tsp coriander

tsp cumin

paprika

tsp kosher salt

cayenne pepper

brown rice

kosher salt

tsp chickpea miso

sesame oil

⅓ cup cooked lentils (home cooked

arugula

raisins

walnuts

tbsp apple cider vinegar

olive oil (extra virgin)

maple syrup

salt

black pepper

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees and line a large cookie sheet with a nonstick baking mat or parchment paper if desired. Peel and chop the carrots. I like to cut them in 3s on a diagonal and then slice each piece in half to make a 2-bite-sized shape. Then roughly chop the onion and set all of the veggies aside.

Prep

Place the carrots and onions onto the cookie sheet and top with olive oil and all of the spices. Toss to coat evenly then spread into an even layer and bake for 25-30 minutes or until fork tender and caramelized around the edges. Note: if you cut them smaller that th 2-bite-size they&#039;ll cook faster, so adjust cooking time as needed.

Step 1: Savory Roasted Carrots

Combine all of the dressing ingredients in a bowl and whisk to combine. Add the raisins to to the vinaigrette to give them a chance to plump up and marinate while you assemble the salad. Then set aside.

Step 2: Easy Homemade Dressing

While the carrots are roasting, cook the brown rice according to the package directions with a pinch of salt. This should take about 20 minutes. Then fluff the cooked rice with a fork and add the miso and toasted sesame oil while the rice is still warm. Mix well to distribute evenly. Taste and add more salt if desired. Note: A few dashes of low sodium soy sauce or tamari is good too. Set aside to cool.

Step 3: Make the Miso Sesame Brown Rice

When the carrots, rice, and homemade dressing are complete, all that&#039;s left to do is assemble! So in a large mixing bowl combine the roasted carrots and onions, brown rice, lentils, arugula, walnuts, raisins, and dressing. Toss well to combine, then divide between two plates and finish with some freshly cracked black pepper on top. Enjoy!

Assemble

This salad combines sweet carrots with the liquorice bite of a slightly acidic dressing and creamy blue cheese - a simple lunch or side dish

Warm pearl barley & roasted carrot salad with dill vinaigrette

banana shallots

garlic

fennel seeds

pearl barley

parsley

pack dill

blue cheese

fennel

tbsp white wine vinegar

lemon

Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Put the sliced carrots in a large roasting tin with the shallots, garlic and fennel seeds. Drizzle over the oil, toss everything together and season. Roast for 35-40 mins until everything has caramelised and the carrots are tender.

Meanwhile, boil the pearl barley in a large pan of salted water until al dente, about 30 mins. Make the dressing by whisking all the ingredients together with some seasoning. Remove the carrots from the oven.

Strain the pearl barley and toss through the dressing, carrots, dill, parsley and half the cheese. Finish with a few of the fennel tops and the remaining cheese. Serve warm or cold with a slice or two of warm buttered soda bread, if you like.
