Ingredients
1. Put the potatoes in a large pan and cover with cold water. Bring to the boil and simmer for 10 minutes. Halve lengthways any thick spears of broccoli and add to the pan with the peas after 10 minutes. Simmer for 2-3 minutes more then drain everything. Set the peas and broccoli aside and halve the potatoes lengthways.
2. Meanwhile, heat a griddle or barbecue over a medium-high heat. Toss the zucchinis with ½ tbsp oil and char for 1-2 minutes on each side. Toss the halved potatoes with another ½ tbsp oil and char, cut side down, for 2 minutes.
3. For the dressing, whizz the garlic, remaining 1 tbsp oil, yogurt and vinegar with a little seasoning in a small blender until smooth. Arrange the griddled potatoes, zucchinis, broccoli and peas on large plates and drizzle over the dressing. Scatter with the toasted almonds to serve.
