2-3 long sweet potatoes, sliced
1 tablespoon each of ground cumin and smoked paprika

1
Preheat your oven to 410 F (210 C) and line two baking trays with waxed baking paper
2
Toss the sweet potato in 1 tablespoon of oil and the spices, season with salt and pepper and lay out in a single layer across the two baking trays and bake for about 20 minutes or until golden and slightly crisped
3
Optional: If your cherry tomatoes aren't great and you're using cheap feta, bake these as well, for 10 minutes at the end
4
In your serving bowl/bowls, add the 1/3 cup olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, lentils, parsley and nuts (Note: I prefer to spread these across two bowls)
