Walnuts, pears, lemons and silan (date honey) make it perfect for Tu Bishvat but it's a great salad for any winter lunch. Silan makes it vegan, but you can swap in regular honey if you prefer.

Method
- Preheat oven to 180°C and line three oven trays with baking parchment.

- Blanch the kale in boiling water, drain and set aside.
- Put the courgettes in a bowl, coat with the remaining olive oil and season. Transfer to the second lined baking tray. Add wilted kale and roast for 10 minutes.
- For the caramelised walnuts, mix all the nuts with the silan. Spread on to the last lined baking tray in a single layer. Roast for 10 minutes or until caramelised.
