Method

step 1

Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Put the vegetables, without the garlic, into a bowl and toss with the oil, lemon zest and juice and plenty of ground black pepper.
step 2

Scatter the vegetables over a large baking tray or roasting tin and bake for 30 mins. Take the tray out of the oven, add the garlic and thyme, then turn the vegetables. Return to the oven for 20 mins or until the vegetables are tender and lightly browned, turning halfway through. Dot with the goat’s cheese and nuts, scatter over the spinach and return to the oven for 3-5 mins or until the spinach has wilted and the goat’s cheese has begun to melt. You can press the softened garlic cloves out of their skins and mash with the roasted vegetables, if you like.
