Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat.
  2. Boil the peas in salted water for about 10 to 15 minutes, until they soften up.
  3. Put the cauliflower, onion, and carrots in a baking tray and drizzle them with some olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
  4. Bake for  20 to 25 minutes.
  5. When the peas are soft, drain and mash them with a fork and season with salt and pepper.
  6. Serve with the roasted veg on top and a sprinkle of sesame seeds and fresh thyme.

Notes

  • In spring or early summer, try making this recipe with fresh peas.
  • Don't overcook the peas. For an ultra-bright green color, cook them just until tender.
  • Cut the roasted vegetables into similar-sized pieces so they cook evenly.
  • Give the veggies room when cooking. Use a large enough baking pan so the veggies can be spread out. They will cook more quickly and crisp up better.
