• Preheat oven to 240°C/220°C fan-forced. Peel kumara. Cut kumara and carrot into bite-sized chunks. Cut beetroot into 1cm chunks. Slice courgette into half-moons. • Place veggies on a lined oven tray. Sprinkle over mild North Indian spice blend, drizzle with olive oil and toss to coat. Season with salt and pepper. • Spread out evenly, then roast until tender, 25-30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, heat a large frying pan over medium-high heat. Toast flaked almonds, tossing, until golden, 2-3 minutes. Transfer to a bowl and set aside. • Zest lime to get a pinch and slice into wedges. In a small bowl, combine mayonnaise and lime zest. Season with salt and pepper. Set aside. • In a medium bowl, combine chicken thigh, Sri Lankan spice blend, a pinch of salt and a drizzle of olive oil.
• Return frying pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Cook chicken until browned, 2 minutes each side. • Transfer chicken to a second lined oven tray and drizzle with the honey. Bake until cooked through, 12-14 minutes.
TIP: Chicken is cooked through when it's no longer pink inside.
• When roast veggies are done, add a generous squeeze of lime juice to the tray. Gently toss to combine. Season to taste. • Slice Sri Lankan-spiced chicken. • Divide roast veggie toss between plates. Top with chicken. • Spoon over lime mayo. Garnish with toasted almonds and tear over mint. Serve with any remaining lime wedges. Enjoy!
