Method

Preheat the oven to 190C/ fan170C/gas 5. Arrange the butternut squash, peppers and potato pieces in a roasting tin and drizzle with 3 tablespoons of the olive oil. Scatter with the rosemary leaves and garlic. Season and toss together. Roast in the oven for 35-40 minutes, turning halfway, until tender.
Meanwhile, heat the remaining oil in a frying pan over a medium heat. When hot, add the pumpkin and sesame seeds and cook, stirring constantly, for 30 seconds, until golden – they might start to pop! Remove from the heat, cool slightly, then stir in the soy sauce.
Divide the salad leaves between 4 serving plates. Arrange the roasted vegetables on top, drizzling over any pan juices, then spoon over the toasted seeds to serve.
