Method

Roasting the Vegetables

  1. 1

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

  2. 2

    Prepare the Beets and Sweet Potatoes

    Peel and chop the golden beets and sweet potatoes into bite-sized cubes. Place them in a large bowl.

  3. 3

    Season the Vegetables

    Add olive oil, ground cumin, paprika, salt, and black pepper to the bowl. Toss until the vegetables are well coated.

  4. 4

    Prepare the Onions and Peppers

    Slice the onion and bell pepper into strips. Add them to the bowl with the beets and sweet potatoes and toss to combine.

  5. 5

    Roast the Vegetables

    Spread the vegetable mixture onto a baking sheet in a single layer. Roast in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until tender and slightly caramelized, stirring halfway through.

Preparing the Kale

  1. 6

    Wash and Tear the Kale

    While the vegetables are roasting, wash the kale thoroughly. Tear it into bite-sized pieces, discarding the tough stems.

  2. 7

    Sauté the Kale

    In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the kale and sprinkle with salt. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes, until the kale is wilted and tender.

Making the Tahini Ginger Sauce

    Combine the Ingredients

    In a bowl, whisk together tahini, grated ginger, lemon juice, water, minced garlic, and salt to taste until smooth and creamy.

    In a large serving bowl, layer the sautéed kale, followed by the roasted vegetables.

  2. 10

    Drizzle the Sauce

    Drizzle the tahini ginger sauce generously over the top.

  3. 11

    Garnish

    Sprinkle black sesame seeds on top for garnish.
