Ingredients

3 tablespoons olive oil

3 tablespoons maple syrup

1 tablespoon white miso paste

300 grams Brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved (about 4 cups)

2 medium sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into 1-inch pieces

Freshly ground black pepper

1 cup Puy lentils (200 grams)

1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil

1 lemon, zested and juiced

1/4 cup finely chopped parsley

2 cups baby spinach

Kosher salt

1/2 cup chopped walnuts, toasted

Directions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
  2. Whisk together the olive oil, maple syrup and miso paste in a large bowl. Add the Brussels sprouts and sweet potatoes, season with pepper and transfer onto a large, rimmed baking sheet. Roast for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the sprouts are golden and a little crisp and the sweet potatoes are caramelized and tender, stirring once halfway through.
  3. Meanwhile, rinse the lentils in a fine mesh sieve. Add the lentils into a saucepan and cover with about 3 inches of water. Bring to a boil then cover, reduce the heat to low and simmer for 15 to 20 minutes, until tender. Drain and transfer to a large bowl. Drizzle the lentils with extra-virgin olive oil. Add the lemon zest, lemon juice, parsley and baby spinach. Season with salt and stir well to combine.
  4. To serve, spoon the lentils onto a serving dish and top with the roasted Brussels sprouts and sweet potatoes and a scattering of walnuts.

Delicious! Very satisfying too and I'm a big carnivore! I think I will make some miso/maple sauce to add at the end, since I really roasted my veg I lost some of both. Thr walnuts are lovely too. Next time I will get the French lentils, since I've never tried them.<br /><br />
