Ingredients

• 500g of your choice of meat (chicken, beef, or lamb)

• 1 cup Lotus Veggie Mix

• 2 tbsp olive oil or melted butter

• 3 garlic cloves, minced

• 1 tsp dried rosemary or thyme

• 1 tsp ground paprika

• 1/2 tsp Lotus Nature’s Seasoning

• Salt and pepper to taste

• 1 cup vegetable broth (or more, if needed)

• Fresh herbs (optional, for garnish)

Instructions

1. Preheat the Oven

   • Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F).

     
     

2. Prepare the Lotus Veggie Mix

   • Soak the Lotus Veggie Mix in warm water for 10 minutes. Drain and set aside.

     
     

3. Season the Meat

   • Rub the meat with olive oil (or melted butter), minced garlic, rosemary or thyme, paprika, Lotus Nature’s Seasoning, salt, and pepper.

     
     

4. Roast the Meat

   • Place the seasoned meat on a roasting tray. Roast in the oven for about 25-30 minutes for chicken, or 1-1.5 hours for beef or lamb (depending on size), or until cooked through. Baste occasionally with vegetable broth to keep it moist.

     
     

5. Roast the Veggies

   • In the last 15-20 minutes of roasting, add the rehydrated Lotus Veggie Mix around the meat on the tray. Toss the veggies with a little olive oil, salt, and pepper, and roast until they are golden and tender.

     
     

6. Serve

   • Once the meat is fully cooked and rested, carve and serve with the roasted veggies. Garnish with fresh herbs if desired.

Tips!

• For extra richness, add a squeeze of lime or a handful of spinach just before serving.

• You can add chickpeas, lentils, or tofu for added protein.

• Adjust the spices to your preference; add more curry powder for extra heat or sweetness.
