Black Lentil and Harissa-Roasted Veggie Bowl image

We love the roasted sweet potatoes in this bowl, but any hardy vegetable would be just as delicious. Try delicata squash, cauliflower, or eggplant.

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 tsp. kosher salt, plus more
2 cups black beluga lentils, rinsed
1/2 tsp. ground coriander
7 Tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil, divided
2 Tbsp. harissa paste, divided
1/2 tsp. freshly ground black pepper, plus more
2 large sweet potatoes (about 1 1/2 lb.), scrubbed, cut into 1/2" pieces
2 pint cherry tomatoes, halved
3 Tbsp. red wine vinegar
1 Tbsp. honey
1/2 cup chopped cilantro

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425°F. Bring a medium saucepan of salted water to a boil; add lentils. Adjust heat and simmer until just cooked through, 25-30 minutes. Drain lentils and transfer to a large bowl; let cool slightly.
  • Meanwhile, whisk coriander, 3 Tbsp. oil, 1 Tbsp. harissa paste, 2 tsp. salt, and 1/2 tsp. pepper in a small bowl. Arrange sweet potatoes and tomatoes on a rimmed baking sheet and drizzle with harissa oil (reserve bowl for dressing). Roast, tossing once, until sweet potatoes are tender and browned on some sides and tomatoes burst, 25-30 minutes.
  • Whisk vinegar, honey, and remaining 1 Tbsp. harissa in reserved bowl. Stream in remaining 4 Tbsp. oil, whisking constantly until emulsified; season vinaigrette with salt.
  • Add half of vinaigrette to lentils and toss to combine. Taste and season with salt and pepper. Divide among bowls. Top with roasted vegetables and cilantro. Drizzle with remaining vinaigrette.
  • Do Ahead
  • Lentils can be cooked 3 days ahead. Let cool; cover and chill.

I had some trouble finding harissa sauce, but I was able to substitute it with a spicy tomato sauce. The dish still turned out great!
