MISO MAPLE BRUSSEL SPROUTS AND SWEET POTATOES WITH LENTILS

Steps:

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

Roast for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the sprouts are golden and a little crisp and the sweet potatoes are caramelized and tender, stirring once halfway through.
• Meanwhile, rinse the lentils in a fine mesh sieve. Add the lentils into a saucepan and cover with about 3 inches of water. Bring to a boil then cover, reduce the heat to low and simmer for 15 to 20 minutes, until tender. Drain and transfer to a large bowl. Drizzle the lentils with extra-virgin olive oil. Add the lemon zest, lemon juice, parsley and baby spinach. Season with salt and stir well to combine.

SEARED TUNA STEAK WITH RUSTIC MASHED POTATOES

Steps:

• For the mashed potato, cut the potatoes into even-sized chunks, not too small. If they are large, quarter them and if they are small, halve them.
• Put the potato chunks in a large saucepan of boiling water, and simmer gently until they are absolutely tender - they should take about 25 minutes.
• When the potatoes are cooked, drain them and place back in the empty pan. Add the mayonnaise to the potatoes at this point and using a wooden spoon (not a masher or whisk) vigorously mash them. The finished mash should not be completely smooth, but a combination of creamy and chunky mash.
• For the tuna steaks, rub olive oil in to both sides then season with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Heat a pan and chargrill for two minutes on each side.
