Embrace the cozy transition of the seasons with this quintessential autumn bowl that balances earthy warmth with refreshing crunch. We’ve roasted golden kūmara and Brussels sprouts until tender and caramelised, tossing them together with salty, smokey bacon and toasted walnuts for a truly satisfying texture. Served over a bed of fresh trio lettuce and finished with thin slices of crisp apple and a drizzle of creamy maple dressing, this salad is a celebration of the orchard and the garden in one beautiful, rustic plate.

Preheat oven to 220°C/200°C fan-forced. Pick rosemary.
Peel kumara and cut into bite-sized chunks.
Place kumara on a lined oven tray. Drizzle generously with olive oil, sprinkle over rosemary, season with salt and pepper and toss to coat.
Spread out evenly, then roast until tender, 20-25 minutes.

TIP: If your oven tray is crowded, divide between two trays.

Meanwhile, halve Brussels sprouts.
Thinly slice apple into sticks.
Roughly chop green butter lettuce.

Place Brussels sprouts on a second lined oven tray.
Drizzle with olive oil, season with salt and pepper and toss to coat.
Arrange cut-side down and roast until tender, 15-18 minutes.
Remove tray from oven, then add a drizzle of balsamic vinegar, tossing to coat.

TIP: The Brussels sprouts will char slightly, this adds to the flavour!

Heat a large frying pan over medium-high heat. Toast walnuts, tossing, until golden, 3-4 minutes. Transfer to a bowl and set aside.

When the Brussels sprouts have 5 minutes remaining, return frying pan, to medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil.
Cook bacon, turning, until golden, 5-6 minutes. Transfer to a chopping board and roughly chop. TIP: Cook in batches if your pan is getting crowded.

In a large bowl, combine lettuce, apple, kumara, Brussels sprouts, a drizzle of vinegar and olive oil. Season to taste.
Divide salad between bowls. Top with smokey bacon.
Drizzle over creamy maple dressing and garnish with toasted walnuts to serve. Enjoy!
