Ingredients

The Vegetables
  • ½ head Cauliflower, cut into small florets
  • ½ head Broccoli, cut into medium florets
  • 2 medium Carrots, sliced into rounds
  • 1 medium Red bell pepper, chopped
  • 1 medium Onion, cut into wedges
  • 1 medium Potato, cubed
  • 1 cup Cooked chickpeas (canned or boiled)
The Spiced Sauce
  • ½ cup Extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 tsp Dried thyme
  • 1 tsp Turmeric
  • 1 tsp Sweet paprika
  • 1 tsp Curry powder
  • 1 tsp Red pepper flakes
  • 1 tsp Salt
The Yogurt Base
  • 1 cup Plain yogurt
  • 1 tbsp Mayonnaise (optional, for extra creaminess)
  • 2 cloves Garlic, minced
  • 2 tbsp Fresh dill, finely chopped

Equipment

  • Large Baking Sheet: For even roasting and spreading.
  • Parchment Paper: To prevent sticking and for easy cleanup.
  • Large Mixing Bowl: To toss the veggies with the spice blend.
  • Small Whisk: To get the garlic yogurt sauce perfectly smooth.

Method

  1. Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Add the cauliflower florets for 3-4 minutes. Do the same with the broccoli (keep broccoli florets slightly larger as they cook faster). Drain well.
  2. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. Add the blanched cauliflower and broccoli, along with the chopped carrots, peppers, onions, potatoes, and chickpeas.

  3. In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil and all the spices (thyme, turmeric, red pepper powder, curry, and flakes).

  4. Pour the spiced oil over the vegetables. Use your hands or a spatula to toss everything until every vegetable is evenly coated in that golden spice mix.

  5. Place in a preheated oven at 200°C (400°F). Bake for about 30 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender and the edges of the veggies are slightly charred.
  6. While the veggies roast, mix the yogurt, mayonnaise, minced garlic, and dill in a small bowl.
  7. Spread the creamy garlic yogurt onto the bottom of a large serving platter. Top it with the hot, roasted vegetables. Enjoy immediately!

Notes

For the best roasting results, spread the vegetables in a single layer on the baking sheet. Overcrowding the pan can cause them to steam instead of roast, preventing them from developing a golden, caramelized texture.
