  3. On a large platter, layer the roasted carrot, sliced avocado and watercress. Drizzle over the dressing and dot over the drained pickled onions.

Cook’s tip

Angela suggests roasting the carrots and butternut squash with cloves of garlic in their skins and then squeezing the garlic into the salad for extra flavour.
