Instructions

Preheat the oven to 390F or 200C.
Strip the bulb of garlic of the outer leaves. Cut the top of alle the cloves, but leave them on the bulb.
Place the bulb in the oven dish, together with the sweet potatoes and bell peppers. Put in the oven for half an hour. Check if nothing is burning, if so take out of the dish and oven. Most of the ingredients will probably need 15 minutes more.
Cut the woody part from the asparagus. Carefully rinse the heads to get rid of sand. Steam them for a maximum of 5 minutes. You can leave the raw as well. I myself do 3.
Peel the potatoes and mash. Add the spices and maple syrup.
Squeeze the soft flesh out from the cloves of garlic. Put into the cup of your immersion blender.
Peel the peppers and remove the stem and seeds. You might need to rinse them. Add to garlic.
Squeeze the lemon and add. To prevent seeds in your cup you might want to squeeze the juice into a small bowl first.
Add the dried herbs and blend.
Divide the sweet potato mash over two plates. Lay the asparagus on tip. Dress with the sauce and top with the sprouts.
