Spiced Baked Pumpkin Salad

Method:

Preheat oven to 180 degrees Celsius. Place garlic, cumin, chillies, vinegar and sugar in a saucepan. Bring to the boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 1 minute. Place in a bowl with the sweet soy sauce, olive oil and sesame oil.

Lay the pumpkin wedges on a large, lined baking tray. Brush with a little olive oil and season. Roast for 10 minutes until almost tender. Remove and brush with half the marinade.

Heat a char-grill over high heat and grill the pumpkin for 2-3 minutes, each side, until lightly charred and tender. Place on a serving platter and drizzle with the remaining sweet soy marinade.

Garnish with coriander, crispy shallots and extra chilli.

Ingredients:

  • 1 garlic clove, finely chopped
  • 1 tsp ground cumin
  • 2 small red chillies, finely chopped, plus extra to garnish
  • 1/3 C rice wine vinegar
  • 1 Tbsp brown sugar
  • 2 Tbsp sweet soy sauce
  • 1/4 C olive oil, plus extra to brush
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 1/2 pumpkin, seeds removed and cut into wedges
