👨‍🍳 Method

For the Roasted Vegetables

  1. 1
    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. 2
    In a bowl, toss the vegetables and carrot with the olive oil, paprika, cumin, turmeric, salt and black pepper.
    Bowl
  3. 3
    Spread on a baking sheet in a single layer, without crowding.
    Baking pan
  4. 4
    Roast the vegetables and carrot in a hot oven (200°C / 390°F) 15 minutes, until 0.

    💡Give it room in the pan: crowded vegetables steam instead of browning.
  5. 5
    Add the tomatoes to the pan and stir.
  6. 6
    Roast everything in a hot oven (200°C / 390°F) another 10 minutes, until the vegetables are golden.

To assemble

  1. 7
    Mix the tahini, lemon juice and garlic.
  2. 8
    Gradually add cold water while stirring, until the sauce is smooth, pale and pourable.
    💡When you add the first water, the tahini thickens and looks like dough: that's fine. Keep adding water and stirring, and it loosens into a smooth sauce.
  3. 9
    Arrange the roasted vegetables in a serving bowl with the avocado, drizzle the tahini sauce over them and sprinkle the sesame seeds on top.
