Method: How to make roasted vegetable salad with tangy lemon and balsamic vinaigrette

1. Preheat the oven to 240ÂșC/Gas 9. Arrange the courgettes, tomatoes, peppers, fennel and onion in the roasting tin and sprinkle with crushed garlic and oil. Toss everything around in the oil to get a good coating and season with salt and pepper.

2. Place the tin on the highest shelf of the oven for 30-40 minutes or until the vegetables are toasted brown at the edges. When the vegetables are cooked, remove from the oven and spoon into a serving bowl.

3. Whisk together the dressing ingredients and pour over the vegetables. Cover and chill for 1 hour. Garnish with fresh rosemary and serve.
