Method

Blend mustard, spices, and honey in a food processor until smooth.

Add vinegar, then slowly stream in oil and rosewater while blending to emulsify.

Stir in mint and parsley, season with salt and pepper, and set aside.

Toss courgettes with oil in a mixing bowl until coated.

Griddle courgettes over medium-high heat for 2-3 minutes per side and let cool.

Combine griddled courgettes with lentils, peppers, raisins, pine nuts, watercress, and dates.

Toss the salad with the dressing before serving.
