How to make:

Turn oven onto 220^oC bake. Scrub potatoes and cut into 1-2cm cubes. Place on lined baking tray with oil, herbs and garlic and toss to coat. Bake for 20 minutes, then remove from oven, sprinkle over parmesan cheese and bake for a further 15 minutes. Remove from oven, cool slightly and separate potato chunks if stuck together.

Place eggs into a pot of boiling water, cook for 4-6 minutes depending on how firm you like your egg yolks. Drain, cool under cold running water and peel. Cut into halves or quarters.

Remove woody ends of asparagus and cut in half. Add with edamame beans to another pot of boiling water and cook for 3-4 minutes. Drain and set aside to cool.

Wash cos lettuce, drain, break into bite size pieces and place into a large bowl with baby spinach. Cut cherry tomatoes in half and add to bowl. Finely chop parsley and garlic chives or spring onion and add to bowl. Add parmesan cheese, Caesar dressing and half of the pumpkin and sunflower seeds (reserving some to top) to salad ingredients. Mix to combine.

When potatoes have cooled slightly, add to salad ingredients along with asparagus and edamame beans and lightly toss. Place on a large platter and top with eggs and remaining pumpkin and sunflower seeds.
