    1 Preheat oven to 180ºC. Line 2 large baking trays with baking paper. Place pumpkin and onions on one of the trays, spray with oil and sprinkle with dukkah. Roast for 25 minutes or until golden and tender. Steam beans separately. If using asparagus spears, add  to tray for the last 10 minutes of cooking time.

    2 Meanwhile, spray a large, non-stick frying pan with oil and place over a high heat. Cook lamb for 1-2 minutes each side or until golden. Transfer onto second baking tray and roast for 15 minutes (for medium) or until cooked to your liking. Transfer to a plate, cover loosely with tinfoil and set aside for 5 minutes to rest. Slice thinly.

    3 To make dressing combine yoghurt, tahini and lemon juice. Serve lamb and vegetables with couscous and tahini yoghurt (divide among 4 serving plates and 2 lunchboxes).
