For the Roasted Vegetables

  1. 2
    Preheat the oven to 200°C (390°F).
    ⚙ Preheating the OvenOven
    💡Put things in the oven only once it's reached temperature, after the heating light has gone off: an oven that hasn't reached temperature changes baking times, and the bake burns outside or stays underbaked.
  2. 3
    Cut the vegetables, pepper and tomatoes in half.

  3. 4
    In a bowl, toss the vegetables, pepper and tomatoes with the olive oil, salt and black pepper.

  4. 5
    Spread on a baking sheet in a single layer, without crowding.

  5. 6
    Roast the vegetables, pepper and tomatoes in a hot oven (200°C / 390°F) 20 minutes, until the vegetables are tender and browned.

    💡Give it room in the pan: crowded vegetables steam instead of browning.

To assemble

  1. 7
    Let the roasted vegetables cool 10 minutes, so they're warm and don't wilt the leaves.
  2. 8
    Arrange the leaves on a serving plate.
  3. 9
    Arrange on top the roasted vegetables.
  4. 10
    Sprinkle the cheese and basil on top.
  5. 11
    Drizzle with the dressing and serve immediately.
    💡The dressing goes on only just before serving: dressed green leaves wilt within minutes.
