    1 Preheat oven to 200°C. On an oven dish lined with baking paper, place veges. Sprinkle over cumin and olive oil, and toss to coat veges. Roast for 20-25 minutes, until golden and soft.

    2 Meanwhile, in a saucepan of water, boil eggs for 6-7 minutes. Remove from pot and rinse under cold water. When cool enough to handle, peel and quarter.

    3 In a small bowl, place dressing ingredients, mix well and set aside. In a separate bowl, place lemon yoghurt ingredients, mix well and set aside.

    4 When vegetables are cooked, combine them with rice and toss through dressing. Add eggs and season with black pepper.

    5 Serve salad topped with lemon yoghurt and garnished with chilli flakes, almonds and coriander.

      The lemon yoghurt dressing is also nice on grilled fish and chicken – we had some dressing left over and used it on our next meal and were very happy with the result.
