- 2 small (about 6 ounces each) zucchini, sliced
- 1 (15-ounce) can chickpeas, drained
Curry Marinade:
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon ground coriander
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 2 teaspoons ground turmeric
- 2 teaspoons ground cumin
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- ½ teaspoon salt (optional)
Tahini Ginger Sauce:
- 2 tablespoons tahini
- 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
- 3 tablespoons hot water
- 1 teaspoon freshly grated ginger
- Pinch sea salt (optional)
- ¼ teaspoon freshly grated black pepper
Garnish:
- ½ cup coarsely chopped pistachios
- ¼ cup chopped fresh parsley or cilantro (optional)
Instructions
- To cook triticale, place uncooked triticale, water, and lemon juice in a medium pot, cover, and cook for 55-60 minutes over medium heat until tender yet firm. Drain any remaining water, cover, and set aside.
- While triticale is cooking, prepare roasted vegetables and curry marinade. Preheat oven to 375 F. Arrange cauliflower florets, halved brussel sprouts, sliced carrots, sliced zucchini, and chickpeas on a baking sheet.
- Prepare the Curry Marinade. Whisk together extra virgin olive oil, lemon juice, garlic powder, ground coriander, smoked paprika, ground turmeric, ground cumin, black pepper, and salt (optional) together in a small dish. Drizzle marinade over the vegetables and use tongs to distribute it evenly into the vegetables.
- Place baking sheet with vegetables tossed with marinade in the oven and roast for 35-40 minutes until golden and tender, stirring half way through with tongs to evenly cook. Remove from oven and set aside.
- While vegetables and triticale are cooking, make the Tahini Ginger Sauce by whisking together tahini, lemon juice, hot water, ginger, sea salt (optional), and black pepper in a small dish until smooth and creamy.
- To assemble bowls, layer the following into individual bowls (about 3 cups capacity each)
- One-fourth (about 2/3 cup) of cooked triticale
- One-fourth (about 2 cups) roasted vegetable mixture
