RECIPE OF THE WEEK

Roasted vegetable crumble

Ingredients

6 small red onions quartered

400 g orange sweet potatoes cut into 3 cm chunks

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 garlic clove crushed

2 teaspoons fresh thyme

2 large zucchini cut into 3 cm slices

100 g baby button mushrooms

350 g roma tomatoes quartered


Topping

75g wholemeal flour

25 g cold butter diced

1 tablespoon cold water

40g fresh wholemeal breadcrumbs

40g grated parmesan cheese

25g mixed chopped nuts

2 tablespoons sunflower seeds

2 tablespoons pepitas

 


Preheat the oven to 190C. Put an ovenproof dish, preferably metal and measuring about 30 by 20 by 4 cm, in the oven and allow it to heat for 10 minutes. Combine the onions and sweet potatoes in a bowl, drizzle with 1 tablespoon of the oil and gently toss to coat. Tip into the heated dish and roast for 30 minutes, turning the vegetables after 15 minutes.


Blend the remaining oil with the garlic and 1 teaspoon of the thyme in the bowl. Add the zucchini, mushrooms and tomatoes, and gently toss to coat. Tip into the dish and roast for a further 20 minutes.


Meanwhile, put the flour in a bowl and rub in the butter using your fingertips. Add the water and mix together with a fork to make large crumbs. Stir in the breadcrumbs, cheese, nuts, seeds, pepitas and remaining thyme.


Sprinkle the crumble mixture over the vegetables. Bake for 15-20 minutes until the topping is golden brown and all the vegetables are tender.


Remove from the oven and leave to stand for 3-4 minutes before serving.
