Ingredients

Scale

Vegetables and Legumes

  • 300g long-stemmed broccoli
  • 2 baby pak choi, quartered
  • 2 red onions, cut into 3cm wedges
  • 1 red pepper, deseeded and sliced
  • 4 carrots, chopped into wedges
  • 400g can chickpeas, drained and patted dry

Sauces and Seasonings

  • 2 tbsp sesame or olive oil
  • 4 tbsp teriyaki sauce
  • 1 large thumb-size piece of ginger, grated

Grains and Garnishes

  • 400g cooked brown rice
  • 4 spring onions, finely sliced
  • 1 tbsp toasted black and white sesame seeds

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven: Heat the oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 7 to ensure it’s ready for roasting the vegetables evenly and to get a nice caramelization.
  2. Prepare the vegetables: Chop the broccoli stalks, leaving the florets whole. Place all broccoli, pak choi, red onions, red pepper, carrots, and chickpeas in a large bowl.
  3. Coat with sauce and oil: Add the sesame or olive oil, 3 tablespoons of the teriyaki sauce, and grated ginger to the bowl. Toss everything thoroughly to ensure all the vegetables and chickpeas are coated evenly. Season lightly with salt and pepper.
  4. Roast the vegetables: Spread the coated vegetable mixture evenly on a large non-stick baking sheet in a single layer. Use two trays if necessary to avoid overcrowding. Roast in the oven for 35-40 minutes, tossing halfway through to ensure even browning.
  5. Heat the rice: When there are about 5 minutes left on the veg roasting time, warm up the cooked brown rice so it is ready to serve alongside the roasted vegetables.
  6. Assemble the bowls: Divide the warmed brown rice among four serving bowls. Top each bowl with a generous portion of the roasted vegetable and chickpea mixture.
  7. Garnish and serve: Drizzle the reserved 1 tablespoon of teriyaki sauce over each bowl. Scatter the finely sliced spring onions and toasted sesame seeds on top as a flavorful garnish. Serve immediately for a warm, comforting meal.

Notes

  • Use either sesame oil or olive oil depending on your flavor preference; sesame oil adds a nuttier taste.
  • For a spicier kick, add a pinch of chili flakes when tossing the vegetables in the sauce.
  • Leftover roasted vegetables can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
  • This recipe easily adapts to gluten-free by using a gluten-free teriyaki sauce.
  • For added protein, you can substitute chickpeas with tofu cubes or tempeh.
