Check out the latest recommended times in our Cooking Guidelines.

Before you start

Preheat the oven to 240C / fan 220C / gas mark 8 / air fryer 200C
Line a large baking tray with parchment paper
Pull out a large frying pan, a large bowl & a measuring jug

Roast the veg

Halve the potatoes lengthways (quarter any larger ones). Slice the onion into wedges. Cut the pepper into chunks. Cut the courgette into 1/2cm half-moons. Drain the prawns
Place the prepped veg onto the lined baking tray and toss with 2 tbsp oil, half the peri peri seasoning and a pinch of salt and pepper
Roast for 25-30 mins / air fryer 20-25 mins, until golden and crispy

Sizzle the prawns

Heat the large frying pan with 1 tbsp oil on high heat. Once hot, add the prawns and remaining peri peri seasoning and cook for 2 mins
Add the red pepper tapenade, stock powder and 150ml water (75ml for 1 person). Bring to a boil, lower the heat to medium-high and simmer for a further 7 mins. Season with salt and pepper

Last bits & plate up

When ready, combine the rocket and roasted veg in the large bowl. Season with salt and pepper
Check your prawns are cooked through; they should be opaque, firm and steaming hot
Share the roasted veg salad between bowls, topped with the prawns. Drizzle over any remaining peri peri sauce from the frying pan
