Directions
Preheat the oven to 220°C/200°fan/Gas 7. Halve the potatoes and place in a bowl. Toss in 2 tablespoons olive oil. Spread the potatoes on a large baking tray and season with salt and pepper. Bake for 10 minutes. Meanwhile, trim about 2.5cm (1in) from the woody ends of the asparagus and cut each spear in half. Toss the asparagus and bacon with the potatoes. Return to the oven and bake for a further 15 minutes until the potatoes are lightly golden and tender. Mix the remaining oil with the lemon juice, honey and mustard. To serve, drain the roasted vegetables and bacon. Mix the celery, leek and watercress together then pile onto serving plates and top with the hot vegetables and bacon. Drizzle with the dressing and serve immediately.
