This roasted Jerusalem artichoke and kale salad is tossed in a zingy lemon dressing. Best eaten hot or warm.
Tossed in a zingy lemon dressing, this roasted Jerusalem artichoke & kale salad recipe is bursting with flavours. The Jerusalem artichokes and kale are cooked with juicy tomatoes and coconut. To give this dish some extra umami, I added some ginger and soya sauce to the dressing. This salad is best eaten hot or warm.
The recipe was inspired by a recipe from Anna Jones for Warm Kale, Coconut and Tomato Salad from “A Modern Way to Eat”. I really liked the addition of coconut which goes perfectly with the Jerusalem artichokes I found in my weekly vegetable box.
I added some chickpeas for protein and tossed everything in a lemon dressing sweetened with maple syrup.
How to make this roasted Jerusalem artichoke & kale salad
The recipe comes together in 40 minutes. To minimise the washing up, everything is cooked on one deep oven tray.
The Jerusalem artichokes do not need to be peeled as long as you wash them with warm water and brush them thoroughly to remove any dirt that is hiding around their knobbly bits. You can then cut them into 2cm / 0.8 inch chunks and spread them in a deep oven tray to roast in the oven for fifteen minutes.
During this time you can prepare the lemon dressing, cherry tomatoes, kale and spring onions.
The tomatoes go next in the oven and five minutes later, the chopped kale and shredded coconut. Ten minutes later, the chickpeas are added to the mix.
Once the vegetables are cooked, tossed them in the dressing. Season everything to taste with salt and pepper and add a sprinkle of spring onions on top. Serve straight away while the salad is hot.
