This delightful dish is a celebration of wholesome roasted sweet potato, beetroot and cauliflower with pearl couscous and fragrant mint. We've added some dukkah and roasted almonds for extra flavour and crunch, then topped it off with a drizzle of garlicky yoghurt.

Preheat oven to 200°C. Roughly chop almonds. Cut cauliflower into bite size florets. Cut sweet potato and baby red beetroot into 1.5cm chunks. Pick mint leaves (discarding stems) and roughly chop.
Tip! Peeling the sweet potato and beetroot is optional (we like to leave it on and save time).
Spread the vegetables over lined baking trays and drizzle with olive oil, seasoning with salt and pepper. Place the garlic clove on the tray. Roast in the oven for 20-25 minutes, until veg is tender. With 10 minutes to go, carefully remove garlic clove (setting aside to cool slightly for step 4) and sprinkle dukkah and almonds over the cauliflower.
Tip! We suggest setting a timer for 15 minutes once the veg goes in the oven, to prompt you to add the dukkah and almonds.
In a pot, heat some butter or oil and add pearl couscous, toasting for 2-3 minutes before adding 1⁄2 cup of water and the vege stock concentrate. Bring to the boil and turn down to simmer for 10 minutes with the lid on, stirring occasionally. It's cooked when all liquid has been absorbed. Once cooked, fluff couscous with a fork, season with salt and pepper.
Tip! Test couscous and add a few tbsp of water if needed, Israeli couscous is similar to barley, in that it has more of an al dente texture when cooked.
Carefully squeeze roasted garlic from skin and mash. Add to Greek yoghurt in a small bowl and season with salt and pepper, mixing well to combine.
Tip! When adding protein to this recipe, properly cook your protein to ensure it is safe to eat.
In a large serving bowl, add roasted vegetables, most of the chopped mint, fire roasted red capsicum strips and couscous, tossing well to combine.
Tip! Reserve a small amount of mint for garnish.
Divide vegetable couscous between plates and drizzle with garlic yoghurt and garnish with mint. Enjoy!
