roasted roots & tahini sauce
Not like you need the cold weather as an excuse to make these as let’s be honest, I eat these all year round BUT, there is something extra satisfying about these when you’re craving something warm to pair with dinner. Letting your carrots and sweet potatoes roast for extra long in olive oil and salt until crisp perfection is something I cannot even put into words , it is that good. Add this tahini dipping sauce with some fresh mint and sesame seeds and you will not want to share. ( note: probably make double if you’re like me). I love pairing these with some fresh rocket and protein like salmon or for a meat free option some chickpea burger patties!
