Usage
-
Heat the oven to
180 °C. Place a sheet of baking paper over a baking tray.
-
Start by mixing
together all the ingredients for the dressing. Season with salt and pepper.
-
Crumble the tempé
with a fork and mix with 3 tablespoons of the dressing and a little paprika
powder. Spread this mixture over half of the baking tray. Season with salt and
pepper.
-
Mix the shredded
carrot in a little olive oil, salt and pepper. Place this on the baking tray
beside the tempé and bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes, or until the
carrot is cooked al dente.
-
Remove the baking
tray from the oven. Stir the tempé and keep to the side so it retains its
crunch. Spread the pear, the dates, the nuts and the endive over the carrots.
Season with salt and pepper and return the baking tray to the preheated oven,
for 5 to 10 minutes, until the pear softens.
- Mix the lamb's lettuce with some salad leaves. Serve the dressing in a side bowl.
