Roasted autumn vegetables with chilli-maple dressing and tofu and peanut vegan ‘mayo’

• Roast

Roasted sweet 'n' spicy sprouts with lime cashews

Take your sprouts far beyond the usual roasted with pancetta/bacon scenario. They are the perfect vehicle for a bit of sweet and heat. If your sprouts are on the larger side, halve them before cooking. If you don't want any extra roasted cashews (trust me, you really do) you can halve the quantity.
