Ingredients

  • 180g cooked green lentils
  • 250g baby potatoes
  • 120g broccoli
  • 100g red pepper
  • 4.6g olive oil

Equipment

  • hob
  • non-stick frying pan
  • knife
  • chopping board
  • spatula
  • kitchen scales
  • bowl
  • clean plate
  • oven
  • oven tray
  • oven gloves

Method

  1. Heat the oven to200°C/180°Cfan or the oven-chip packet temperature. Cut raw potatoes into even1–2 cm pieces; toss with half the measured oil. Roast for15 minutes first. Oven chips follow their own packet; their stated weight is cooked weight where specified.
  2. Use ready-cooked canned or pouched cooked green lentils, drained before weighing. Rinse canned pulses if appropriate. Dry pulses cannot be substituted directly.
  3. Cut carrots, broccoli, peppers and other roasting vegetables into manageable pieces. Add them to the potato tray and roast for another15–20 minutes until completely tender. Keep salad leaves, cold yoghurt and mayonnaise dressings out of the oven.
  4. Keep cooked meatballs or other cooked protein covered while the vegetables finish. Add cooked protein to the hot vegetables at the end. Warm the measured cooking sauce as its packet directs; serve cold dressing at the table.
  5. Check every component is cooked through and hot; divide the whole recipe into the stated servings. Eat immediately. Larger trays, whole sausage timings or oven-chip instructions may extend the estimate.

Author estimates, not physical cooking trials. Packet instructions and safe doneness govern; larger batches need longer.
