2 Add the kale to the roasting tray and toss well with the carrots and seeds and roast for a further eight minutes until the kale is crispy.

3 Remove from the heat and toss in the apple. Whisk together the cider vinegar and extra virgin olive oil and drizzle over the salad, tossing together well. Season with a pinch of sea salt and ground black pepper.
