method
Caesar Dressing:
- Soak the cashews in just enough boiling water to submerge for 30 minutes. Then drain (reserving the water).
- Place the remaining ingredients into a small blender and puree until smooth, adding the reserved water if required until a dressing consistency is achieved.
Salad:
- Preheat the oven to 220°C.
- Prepare broccoli into small florets and dress with 1 tsp olive oil. Place into a suitable size roasting tray. Place the broccoli into the preheated oven for 5 minutes until tender and charred. Remove and set aside.
- Toss the kale in the lemon juice (this will start breaking down the raw kale).
- Reduce oven temperature to 200°C.
- Coat the chickpeas with 1 tsp olive oil, the garlic powder and cayenne pepper and roast in the oven for 20 minutes until golden and crispy.
- Assemble the salad by combining the kale, broccoli, cashew nuts and chickpeas. Drizzle the dressing on top.
