Step-by-step

1. Preheat oven to 200°C (400°F). Line 2 large baking trays with non-stick baking paper.
2. Place the sprouts and leek in a large bowl, add the oil and toss to combine. Spread over 1 of the trays and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Roast for 20 minutes or until the sprouts are dark golden and tender.
3. While the sprouts are roasting, make the salted honey walnuts. Place the walnuts, honey and salt in a medium bowl and mix to combine. Spread the walnut mixture over the remaining tray and roast, on a lower rack of the oven, for 8 minutes or until golden and caramelised. Allow to cool on the tray.
4. To make the honey tahini dressing, place the lemon juice, tahini, honey, water, salt and pepper in a medium bowl and whisk until smooth.
   Divide the sprout mixture between serving bowls and top with the pear and salad leaves. Drizzle with dressing and sprinkle with sumac and the walnuts to serve.
