Ingredients
Kumara (that’s sweet potato - x 1)
Pumpkin (approx 1 C chunky chopped)
Cauliflower (approx 1/5 of a head)
Broccoli (x 1/2 whole head)
Capsicum (x 1)
Red or white onion (x 1)
Garlic (x 2 cloves - crushed)
Tumeric ( x a good shake)
Paprika ( x a good shake)
Cumin (ground, x a good shake)
Garam masala ( x a little shake, this stuff is powerful)
Lemon juice and rind (x 1)
Pottle of hummus (my fav is Lisa’s Extra Garlic x 1)
Coriander or parsley for the coriander haters (fresh if possible, small handful, chopped)
Pre-rolled, reduced-fat puff pastry (x 4 sheets)
Sesame seeds (x a good sprinkle for over top)
Method
Roughly chop up all the veges, throw on a baking tray. Coat with a bit of oil for roasting, shake on the spices and stick it in the oven for about 20 minutes at 200C. About 5 minutes before pulling out the veges throw in the capsicum, mix them around with the veges and leave them to cook for the remainder of the time.
Once completed, put all veges in a bowl. Pour in the lemon juice and rind, mix in the pottle of hummus, sprinkle in the coriander or parsley and stir all together. Put to the side for a moment.
Get the pastry sheets and cut in half from top to bottom. On one half cut out fancy looking air holes (leaf shapes look nice). Place the other half on the (baking paper-lined) baking tray. Then get the vege mix and scoop onto the pastry bottom. Lay over the other piece (with the fancy holes) and squeeze the edges together to seal the top and bottom.
Repeat with the rest.
Pour over a bit of oil, sprinkle with sesame seeds and put them in the over for another 15 minutes or until the pastry is golden and puffed.
Serve it up and sprinkle on some more coriander or parsley to look even more flash. Now get into it, but be very careful! The veges are hot!
