Ingredients

3 tbsp rose harissa (or 2 tbsp regular)
2 tbsp olive oil, plus extra for drizzling
1 large broccoli, sliced through the stem into 1cm thick steaks
2 lemons, halved
400g can black lentils, drained
280g jar mixed antipasti vegetables, drained
100g rocket, half finely chopped, half whole leaves
50g roasted almonds, roughly chopped
200g natural yogurt

Method

Heat a griddle pan over a high heat. Mix 1 tbsp harissa with the olive oil. Brush the broccoli steaks with the harissa oil and season well. Cook the broccoli steaks for 3-4 minutes on each side or until tender with good char lines. Set aside and keep warm. Add the lemons, cut side down, and griddle for 2-3 minutes until charred.
While the broccoli cooks, make the salad. Combine the lentils, antipasti, chopped and whole rocket, and the almonds. Season with the juice from the charred lemons, a drizzle of oil and a good pinch of salt. Stir to combine.
Combine the remaining harissa with the yogurt.
Arrange the lentil salad on a platter or plates, top with the broccoli and serve warm with the harissa yogurt.
